20005 and 20208 coast down the hill towards Ryecroft with a short engineer's train, no doubt bound for Bescot. I have no details for this shot, which I think are in a lost notebook. However it was possible to deduce the number of the second loco, and a rough date, from other photos of 20005 on the web. The date is early summer 1989, and 20005 is in the last few weeks of its 32 year life. It was withdrawn in July 1989.
