The 11.15 service from Wirksworth,
forming the 12.10 to Wirksworth pulls into Duffield station.
On arrival at Wirksworth we find Andrew
Barclay "Brian Harrison" on a private brakevan shuttle up the incline to
Ravenstor.
The Barclay begining its 1 in 27 climb up to Ravenstor.
Our train back to Duffield pulls into
platform 2 at Wirksworth station, pulled by the L&Y A Class.
This locomotive was on a 2 month loan to the EVR from the East
Lancashire Railway.
About to run round its train at
Wirksworth.
The A Class locomotive was in BR livery
as no 52322.
Back at Duffield the locomotive has been
uncoupled from its train, the fireman has changed the points and now
waves the driver on.

the final train of the day.
