Often overlooked by enthusiasts, these items of plant on display at The Greatest Gathering were all built in Derby. The Rail Grinder was built at Loram's facility across the road; and the small metal trolleys were built by Donfabs & Consillia

Lurking in a corner at The Greatest Gathering were these interesting crusty old wagons. One was an "Internal User" shunting runner wagon; and the other a large flat wagon marked "LUL Material Only".

Some more crusty wagons were visible in a siding and only viewable from a train ride. Highlights include a cut-n-shut double length Freightliner twin wagon; some Conflats, and who knows what else.
* Would've gladly paid for a Wagon Walk Experience to get closer to these!

It looks like there may be a movement tomorrow (25th June) from Harwich Parkeston to Worksop Swietelsky HNR Depot. Possibly one or more of the Network Rail machines recently offered for sale?...
