Ecclesbourne Valley Railway Steam Gala 4th-6th May
All set for three days of steam at Wirksworth this Weekend.
Collett Tank has arrived safely after a tour of Derbyshire, hence the night shot of the unloading! Gauging trials and coaching stock run successfully completed See attached photos. Note platform extension at Duffield in wood!

Hope to see you over the weekend. Driving all three days on the incline.
Best wishes,
John H-T.
