Photos taken recently of this line, now operated by Derek Moss.

Certainly an unusual locomotive, running with a Cromar White sit astride, does anyone know the make of the closed coach?

I wonder what has happened to the sit-in coaches that ran here previously?

Thanks
Peter

 The sit in coaches were overturned whilst the Stockport Model Engineers operated the line. I believe they are at Dereks workshop for repair along with the sit in loco that was also there.

 I thought initially that the 1st class coach was ex-Bolebroke, but on closer inspection they are quite different.

Yes, it was built by Mike Lloyd of Castleton North Yorkshire,. The seats came out of 100's that were stored in the Class 151's Mike and I used to own. I think the seat pattern is the former Regional Railway one and was uses in TSO's.
