66 619 arriving at Tunstead Quarry, Derbyshire.
Train 6H43 not doing what was expected so a bit of a bowl out for the waiting photographers. Alas several of us were not far enough up the hill. This meant a shot of the train in the gap between the Top Sidings and the Cement Loading Terminal instead of what we had anticipated. By all accounts this train generally takes the much more photogenic Up & Down Tunsted Through Siding line which was runs parallel to the Great Rocks Junction to Buxton line goods line and avoids passing through the cement loading area.
66 619 is seen easing its train of empty hoppers through Tunstead Top Sidings with train 6H43 the 07.46 stone empties from Pendleton Stone Terminal.
