class 60s Peak Forest


out cycling on 7 February 2005 I passed Peak Forest and having my camera with me took a couple of pics (and out of old habits noted the numbers)! 60087 is shunting the full stone train, 60067 has just arrived with empty wagons and 60063 is in the siding.

another view of 60067, 60063 with another 60 in the distance. I gave up train spotting very many years ago but there's still something about watching proper big trains - well I think so anyway!

out on my bike again on 20 February I came across some engineering work at Chinley and took this photo, the class 66 is 66005

on 26th February 2005 the 'High Peak Hustler' took 2 class 37s to Buxton so I ventured out to have a look. Here 37427 leads the train through Dove Holes.
