Hello from Derbyshire
 

Hello - my names Geoff & I'm involved with the Friends of the Derwent Valley Line (Nottingham-Derby-Matlock). If you want the latest happenings on the line, please visit our website at http://www.fdvl.org.uk

Hello geoff10 and welcome to the Railway Forum. Good to have you aboard.

Hello Geoff and welcome to the forum, enjoy and all the best.

Hi Geoff
That's one I haven't heard of up here in Chesterfield

Nice to see another Derbyshire Ram aboard

Welcome to the Forum Geoff. As you probably know the Ecclesbourne Valley Railway look after the Network Rail Platform at Duffield.

Best wishes,

John H-T.

Thanks - particularly impressed with all your work at Duffield, the branch platform looks very smart. I have put some pics of the EVR opening on Friends of the Derwent Valley website at http://www.fdvl.org.uk/News/LatestNews2. Seemed relevant as your service connects into the Derwent Valley service at Duffield so well in both directions!

Geoff

Geoff,

Please will you put some of the photos on this site. I was too involved to get many photos.

Best wishes,

John H-T.

John,

Have posted 8 pictures (5 in diesel category - 1020 departure to Duffield, and 3 in steam - 1620 to Duffield). What marvellous weather on the day!. Will add one or two of the branch which leaves your line at Duffield Junction for good measure.

Geoff

Geoff,

Many thanks for posting the photos, great! Also many thanks to everyone for their kind comments about the railway.

I am firing on No.3 (Wirksworth - Ravenstor) tomorrow (Saturday) so if anyone is there, please come and say hello.

Best wishes,

John H-T.

Were you on Iris a fortnight ago (the Duffield opening day)
