Dunaskin Platform: Looking south along the ARPG Platform at Dunaskin on 30 August 2015. On the far right is the Network Rail line from Dalrymple Junction, currently out of use. Once past the 10 mph sign, ownership changes to Hargreaves for the line up to Chalmerston Opencast, now also out of use. No. 10 is back on Brake van Shuttle duty.

Whitrope Siding: I bet you didn't know they had a Leyland railbus on the Waverley route; nor that the Waverley was part of London Underground's Circle Line. Scene at the WRHA's Whitrope Heritage Centre on 10 July 2015.
