    Even though the previous down train was not booked to stop at Harmans, it did pass an up train, and 33111 is at the head end.
    33111 used to carry the name "Hotdog" but the rudimentary nameplate has been off the loco for a few years now.  This service is 2C14 1515 from Swanage to Corfe only.  The driver has the power on for the short 1 in 132 rise just here.
    The four coach local stock has had a change of loco at Corfe and it now returns to Swanage behind 50014, on this side, as 2C13 1539 off.
