A last one from the south end of the Up platform at Corfe a week yesterday. Sorry to miss last weekend's Steam Gala but I had business in Brizzle.

Is ground level view down railway kine, twin track running into single track after 150 metres. In right foreground is Bulleid light pacific pointing away from camera with steam blowing from cylinder drain cocks and small amount of smoke from chimney. Driver is looking out of window resting forearms on window frame. In distance, rolling stock on siding, and trees showing signs of spring.
