Class 59, 59201, brings the 6V18 Hither Green Down Reception to Whatley Quarry train of empty stone hoppers through Wandsworth Road station. The service originated at Ardingly as the 6Y60 Ardingly to Hither Green Down Yard. 59201 ran round her train at Hither Green before beginning this leg of the journey. This train of empty wagons is ultimately bound for Hanson's Whatley Quarry in the Mendip Hills. You can see 59201 with the 6Y60 working earlier in the day at Nunhead Junction - Image
