Bobby Briefing.

66848 arrives and pulls up at Liskeard signal box and receives a briefing from the signalman before pulling forward and reversing onto the Looe branch with 5 loaded ballast wagons which formed the 6C43 Westbury to Westbury via Looe.
Freights on the branch are very much a rarity and normally take place under the cover of darkness as did this movement. Night time shots are exceptionally difficult on the branch and i must confess i failed to get a decent shot however i did manage this picture.
66850 was on the rear.
