Peter Milford has sent us these photographs taken on 24th August, August Bank Holiday Sunday. Peter's photos show 80078 between Norden and Corfe Castle and 80104 waiting in the evening light at Harman's Cross. This was the last return trip of the day, and waiting for the last steam hauled service to Norden to arrive from Swanage.
