On Bradnop Bank
I never thought I would see another train on this line, never mind actually ride it behind steam, but today I fulfilled a dream when I was able to join one of the driver training runs in preparation for the November galas on the Churnet Valley Railway, featuring running on the newly restored line from Leek Brook to Caldon Quarry. Moorland and City Railways Ltd have done a great job in reinstating the line in a very short time.
After riding the line it was time to head out for some action photos. Here Stanier 8F 8624 is seen hammering up the 1 in 45 on Bradnop Bank towards Apesford Crossing. The 33 on the back is necessary due to the lack of run round facilities at the far end of the line.
