Taken at Eridge during the October 1988 Uckfield line 'Gala Day' when an intensive service ran on the route, with attractions at various stations, including the chance to have a cab ride in this combination, running up and down along the down siding from the down bay platform -used until 1985 by trains arriving from Tonbridge.

The class 73 is Nº73131 County of Surrey whilst the Crompton is unidentified - but the funny white objects are - as balloons!
