The Knotty Heritage train rests at Dilhorne, HL No.2 will shortly 'run round' the train and head off back to Caversall Road. NSRs 61, 127 and 23 - the accessible brake is at the rear.
Before that can happen, I'll need to shepherd myself and the other photographers back onto the platform.

BR Standard 9F 2-10-0 No 92113 has just passed beneath the Manchester - Romiley - Marple line near Bredbury, and drifts past Bredbury Junction, on the ex Cheshire Lines Committee line from Woodley to Stockport Tiviot Dale and Heaton Mersey.
The line on the left goes to Romiley, and the line on which the loco is on still exists today, as a single track branch from Woodley, and terminates just beyond the bridge in the distance, at the Tilcon stone terminal.
