Tommy and Hydra are no longer at Wirksworth. They have been sold.

I have added some images to Photobucket and thought that this one, taken by our official photographer Geoff Buxton, might be of interest.

I think it's fair to say that we are co-located with EMT at Duffield!

I hope to be there on Friday !

1. Am I right in thinking that there will be steam working on that day ?

2. Do you give discounted fares to people who were born in Wirksworth ?!

All the best

Martin

Yes we shall have steam on Friday: the 12:20 from Wirksworth to Duffield and 13:10 return, followed by the 16:20 with 17:10 return.

We are looking to introduce a residents' pass but, alas, if you no longer live in our fair town I'm afraid regular fares apply but if you are a 'senior member', then you may be eligible for one of our concessionary fares.

Kind regards,

Neil

There will only be steam on the incline service on Monday. Iris will be in action on her own Friday to Sunday.

Best wishes,

John H-T.
