Nice to see these old steam trains in their element my friend. Also good to see that old custom of passing the token here. * Great capture. I was once here too.

HFF and enjoy your weekend, Herb

* In railway signalling, a token is a physical object which a train driver is required to have or see before entering onto a particular section of single track. The token is clearly endorsed with the names of the section it belongs to. A token system is more commonly used for single lines because of the greater risk of collision in the event of a mistake being made by a signaller or train crew, than on double lines. Wiki

Thanks Fusun. I think these heritage railways must be the only places that milk churns can be seen these days!
HFF to yourself!
