Ex-LMS Ivatt Class 2 2-6-2T No.41241, visiting from the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway, simmers at Holt on 2nd April 2022 after taking the 14:27 non-stop service from Sheringham. The return journey - to be hauled by No.564 - was delayed by an hour as a result of a lineside fire, allowing for this opportunity to photograph the Ivatt at this end of Platform 2.

This locomotive was originally preserved at the Severn Valley Railway and was the star of BBC TV Drama series 'Oh Doctor Beeching!' when it was named 'Blossom'. She hauled three carmine and cream Mark 1 carriages over Victoria Bridge and into/out of Arley Station, which itself was renamed 'Hatley'.
The Aberlemno 3, class II Pictish symbol stone, also called the Great Stone. Kari Gibson on the left gives an idea of the height of the symbol stone.
A hunting scene and the double disc Pictish symbol is visible on this face which is not visible from the roadside. Three trumpeters are also visible.
The meaning of these symbols commonly carved by the Picts is unknown. Strangely the missionaries or scribes from the Celtic church did not record the meaning in their texts, even though Celtic christian crosses were engraved on one side of the class II symbol stones, or cross slabs.

Strangely the missionaries or scribes from the Celtic church did not record the meaning of the symbols in their texts. This was even more strange as Celtic christian crosses were engraved on one side of the class II symbol stones or cross slabs.

Memories of west country branch line short freight trains, especially the 'milk' trains, were evoked on 1st March during Martin Creese's photographic charter featuring Ivatt Class 2 No. 46447. The short consist with the obligatory six-wheel milk wagon sit perfectly against the backdrop of the rolling Mendip Hills. Note the spire of the parish church in the village of Doulting on the far right. Mendip Vale station, the western terminus of the East Somerset Railway is tucked away a couple of hundred yards or so in the cutting (off picture) to the left.

This was the very last passenger working on the branch. Regular scheduled passenger services had ceased in 1934! The line was closed completely a few days later and lifted. Today there is no trace of the station. The track-bed has been turned into a walk-way leading to Summerfield Park. A little further on from there, the bridge abutment over the Birmingham Canal can still be seen. The line crossed the canal and joined with the main line through Monument Road into Birmingham New Street Station.
Note on this picture the total disregard of modern Health & Safety directives. How much more pleasant life was in those days for the enthusiast!

After a brief hiatus at the end of 2011 and beginning of 2012, the Venice Boulevard bike lane adjacent CIM Group's Mid-city Crossing project makes a glorious return.
Butterley Reservoir is the most distinguishing feature of both the area and of the Midland Railway, which crosses the expanse of water on a causeway. The reservoir dates back to 1794 when it was constructed to serve the Cromford Canal. It now serves as a major recreation area, frequented by anglers, ramblers, twitchers and gricers! The reservoir is well stocked for anglers as well as being a haven for birds. It is a peaceful place, hardly disturbed even by the passage of a train on the causeway. Arguably, the drifting smoke from the chimney of Ivatt Class 2MT No. 46521 adds to the feeling of tranquility, along with the reflection in the reservoir. It is engaged in a Martin Creese (30742 Charters) photographic charter on herd March 2014. Copyright John Whitehouse-all rights reserved
