It is only a matter of time before one of us get a pheasant on the Wirksworth Branch when we start passenger services to Idridgehay, (3 1/2 miles), hopefully early March, (Please everyone keep fingers crossed, the HMRI inspection is next week!), as we will be running at 25mph instead of the 8 mph of the current works train, which might catch them out (the pheasants not the HMRI!)
However once the lastest arrival is commisioned (400hp English Electric 0-6-0) the pheasants may be even more vulnerable! (See Gallery)
Best wioshes,
