My second visit to Chesterfield this season and of course it is sheeting-it down and very cold! The Sherwood Forester was scheduled to come in on platform 3. I got there with 15 minutes to spare for the scheduled arrival time. Here the service would stop and disembark passengers for an afternoon's visit to Chatsworth House. The whole train would then travel up the line to Barrow Hill LIP, park up ready for the return journey late in the afternoon.
This Blog is an attempt to gather all my photos of railway rolling stock in action. Aeroplanes in the sky or on the ground and a myriad of other things such as night sky objects like stars and planets. The Natural World, such as birds, plants, insects and large fury creatures.
