What was I photographing on this day in previous years?

Nine years ago it was a mini diesel gala (featuring just class 20s if memory serves) at the Midland Railway-Butterley.

I think this was the final train of the day with 20205 and 20189 hauling a heavily loaded rake of carriages across the causeway spanning Butterley Reservoir.

Some more Fujichrome from 2001 for today’s Slide Film Sunday.

I think both images are from the same day in September and as usual I’ve no idea of which camera, lens or exact film stock were used!
