    Corfe station quickly becomes very busy as trains cross. 26007 has run in with 2S03 1030 from Norden to Swanage. The driver has the road and will likely have the token too with the exchange taking place as it entered the station.
    26007 crosses bridge 18 over s small stream and a footpath. The Sulzer 6LDA28 1,160hp powerplant was making a bit of noise as it climbed the 1 in 80 gradient with 4 mkI coaches on the drawbar.......Nice!!
    The 1030 Swanage departure for Norden, 2N05, is powered by 20107 cab leading.
