The morning party assembles on Amerton platform for their one coach train.<br>[&copy; Rob Moorcroft 2022]

The points are clipped ready for the first run (the ground frame was being dismantled and the replacement signal box commissioned.)<br>[&copy; Rob Moorcroft 2022]

The carriage awaits our members (hence the limit of 18 participants); far right our Membership Secretary's husband gets in on the act...<br>[© Kev Adlam 2022]

Inside the Carriage Shed, the coach (behind photographer) was at the extremity of the line.<br>[&copy; Rob Moorcroft 2022]

Other coaches have now been repositioned into the carriage shed ahead so that our tour can do more track in the station area.<br>[&copy; Rob Moorcroft 2022]

The rails are sanded to gain traction.<br>[&copy; Rob Moorcroft 2022]
