Walkies!


28th June 2006 saw a fairly straightforward run around the East Midlands including the Coalville Branch


33103 after arrival at Wellingborough. From here the service was driven from the saloon operating back to Derby via Coalville and Burton-on-Trent.


A view of the long disused sidings at Coalville - the site has recently been brought back into use and it is planned to carry out maintenance at this location.


A routine view of Mantle Lane signal box.


The re-occupation of the sidings has seen a marked increase in traffic along this hitherto little used route. Such has been the irregular use the local population have certainly adopted a routine or two especially when it comes to exercising the hound!
