A Photo from Day 5 of a 10 day 9 night "Railway Tour" of 13 Museums and Heritage Railway Locations. The Main Aim was to get as many Steam Train Journeys to add to my Steam Powered Journeys Spreadsheet which is my modern "Trainspotting" record.
The East Somerset Railway (ESR) runs trains from Cranmore station to Mendip Vale station and back on a 5 mile round trip along its Heritage Railway line.
Along the line, there is also a halt and Cranmore West Station which is near the Sheds.
There is ample car parking at the Cranmore end of the line on normal running days so I started there.
The day I went during the sort of main summer holidays, there was only 1 steam Locomotive running although another was at the sheds and could have been steamed if thought necessary.
Here, at Cranmore Station, 46447 is just about to power the next round trip.
46447 is a Ivatt designed LMS "Class 2" 2MT 2-6-0 loco.

22.5.2016. LMS Ivatt Class 2MT 2-6-0 No 46521 and GWR Modified Hall 4-6-0 No 6990 'Witherslack Hall' pull into Quorn & Woodhouse station with a train for Leicester North.
Martin Creese's charter at the Midland Railway on 3rd March 2014, featuring visiting Ivatt Class 2 No. 46521, was blessed with full sunshine all day and was rounded off by some superb light prior to sunset. This scene rekindles memories of a branch line passenger train trundling along, as No. 46521 heads two passenger coaches and a van across the causeway that spans Butterley Reservoir.

Duffield Departure...
On hire to the Ecclesbourne Valley from the Great Central, Standard 2 No.78018 is seen leaving Duffield with the Ex1210 Duffield to Wirksworth on a very hot summers day. Was expecting any clag out of this with the temperature at 30 degrees!
Taken on the 29th June 2019.

On our photowalk last Saturday it took a Montrealer to show us that minutes away from the Parliament buildings, Ottawa has it’s own unique whitewater paddling course, called the Pumphouse.
It’s a class 2 course where recreational or competitive paddlers can learn, and practice.

Ivatt designed class 2MT 2-6-2T no. 41324 is seen stabled at Weymouth mpd on 8th May 1965. The loco was built by British Railways at Derby and entered traffic at Crewe North in March 1952. She spent most of her working life in Wales and the north west of England before transfer to the Southern Region in 1961. Withdrawn just 5 months after this photo was taken, she was scrapped in November 1965.
After purchasing the former Southern Railway route into Middlesboro from NS, RJ Corman gets the ball rolling a few months into ownership. They continue to ship rather frequently today, now with a pair of SD70M's, also originating from NS though bought from Progress Rail.
An unidentifiable 2-car LMS push-pull set being pushed by (what I think is) an Ivatt Class 2 2-6-2T approaches Walsall station from the south with a local service - c.1958.

THUT2 gets their evening started at Van Yard in Terre Haute with GP38-2s 3806 and 1986, commemorating the railroad's 40th Anniversary. The former MILW/SOO/CP Rail Van Yard office now houses the Indiana Rail Road's dispatching and freight agency offices. This is about as local as it gets for me, merely a couple minutes from my front doorstep!
Class 2 46470, formerly of Kirkby Stephen, ended its days at Tyseley. It is seen here on a Bordesley-Princes End
pick-up goods at Blowers Green Junction, having exchanged the wild landscape of Stainmore for something more prosaic.

LMS/BR 2MT 2-6-0 46521 (BR Swindon/1953) arriving at Dolgellau with the 14:55 from Barmouth to Bala on the last day of workings between Barmouth and Bala.
Loco allocated to Machynlleth shed (6F).
Dolgellau station was built by the Cambrian Railways, it opened in 1868 and was the terminus of the branch from Barmouth. It later became a through station with the arrival of the Great Western Railway's line from Ruabon and Bala. The station used the anglicized name Dolgelly until 1960 when it was changed to the correct Welsh spelling.
