NiceBailey Gate as it currently stands - some detail added and some buildings appearing in the background, such as the pub and some houses.

Viewed across to the down platform:
In the complex now, providing a good shot of the barrels. I think these contained whey but I'm not 100% sure - and yes, there really were that many in the photos I have!
View of the entrance to the dairy. The mainline sweeps through on a gentle curve and here disappears towards Blandford Forum, a mere 6 miles away.

7F 53809 is seen on a southbound goods approaching Bailey Gate crossing.
Approaching Corfe Mullen crossing as seen from the signal box:
53809 passes the crossing keeper's cottage before joining the single line on the Broadstone cut off. The line to the right with the rusty rails is the original line to Wimborne although by this stage it was truncated about half a mile down the line and served as wagon storage. The sand drag prevented any runaways off the spur from entering the main line proper.
