Going nowhere
On arrival at Peak Forest this afternoon, with the exception of 37716, it appeared that nothing was moving.
DB 66100 sits in the stabling sidings. 66133 was stabled on the fuel point. An unidentified Freightliner 66 was sat seemingly waiting to run down to Tunstead, but going no-where immediately.
60024, possibly with stone for Attercliffe was clearly snowed in or more likely this mornings 06:21 Peak Forest to Arpley which was cancelled at the last minute today. Having photographed 37716 starting up and nothing really running, I headed back to the Hope Valley. Most probably yesterday's 17:04 Guide Bridge to Tunstead which reported past Peak Forest S.B at 18:46, but nowhere since.
As yet at 21:30, nothing has moved past Great Rocks Junction, however a Heaton Norris Junction (Stockport) to Tunstead track machine is on its way just passing Chinley, perhaps a crane / snowplow or something else? The trains out of Tunstead/ Hindlow were all initially cancelled due to high winds, then adverse weather conditions and now just at the request of the train operator.
