Foxfield Railway - Bagnall No. 2 transferring between trains. This is at Dilhorne Park Station during the Summer Steam Gala. The locomotive has just hauled a passenger train from Caverswall Road and has now changed tracks to take a freight on to Foxfield Colliery. Bellerophon, built 1874 by the Haydock Foundry, had brought the freight up the infamous bank and was to take the passengers back to Caverswall Road.
