33103 'Swordfish' stands in the summer sun at the north end of Wirksworth yard. It has now been painted back into BR blue following its spell in Fragonset's black lined livery. It's extra high level air pipes, and, out of view, buckeye coupling is testament to the fact that it was one of the Cromptons that was used on the Bournemouth to Weymouth line hauling EMUs before this section of line was electrified.
