45057, unidentified down working, Stoke Canon 
 A few minutes after the previous train had passed hauled by 45076 the barriers went down again at Stoke Canon level crossing. As Graham and I were a little behind schedule now we decided to wait and see what was coming as there was nothing showing in the national timetable and as we were trapped the wrong side of the barriers we had to wait anyway! Yet another Peak in the form of 45057 with a similar rake of stock heads towards the South West but we have no idea what it was. Can anybody help forty years on I wonder? Notice the wisp of exhaust from the locomotive as the driver opens up a bit after the long descent from Whiteball.
