DCR class 56 Route Learner scurries up and down local network - 1867+871

            * Brightside Station
With the 56 still to reach Sheffield and then it pausing in there for around 15minutes, there was ample time to get back from Holmes Junction, along the the Blackburn Meadows Reserve path over the Tinsley canal and head to Brightside where the working would soon pass through. The last shots, the first two showing its approach into the old Station site  with, thankfully, no passenger service due through the other way to spoil the view. A few enthusiasts, 3 I think, can be seen on the mucky footbridge, seems a magnet for litter and soil blown along its length, which then results in lots of weeds growing, D.C.R. class 56, 56091, 'Driver Wayne Gaskell', heads through on the 0Z64, Sheffield Midland back to the Kilnhurst Up Goods Loop. This time of year, the 'Railway Hotel', still in operation, stands sentinel above what used to be a very busy station site, in the days, the early 1990s, before the Meadowhall Interchange, usurped its position, and this site became derelict. 'Devon & Cornwall Railway' class 56, 56901, ex-56103 & 56303, was built by 'British Rail Engineering Limited, B.R.E.L. at Doncaster Works between 1976 and 1984, the years which spanned the introduction of the while fleet, their popular name of course is 'Grid', after the metal grid on the side of the loco; though many other classes also have this feature of course.. The station site, track-wise, looks to have been tidied up, though all the old relics survive but the staircases onto the platforms appear to have been repeatedly denuded over the years... Today's light engine workings started off in the Derby area at 08:42 and will terminate with last working, see below, at 17:32 with last working, back to Chaddesden Sidings-

* 0Z60 Chaddesden Sidings to Thrybergh Junction

* 0Z62 Sheffield to Kilnhurst Up Goods Loop
* 0Z63 Kilnhurst Up Goods Loop to Sheffield
* 0Z64 Sheffield to Kilnhurst Up Goods Loop
* 0Z65 Kilnhurst Up Goods Loop to Brightside Up/Down East Slow
* 0Z66 Brightside Up/Down East Slow to Thrybergh Junction  & finally,
