Yesterday a picture of DRS 66433 hauling a quarry train at Peak Dale was tweeted. While not a regular around the area, I'm intrigued to know if this working was a one off, an ad hoc working or if there is a contract in place or regular shipments. I'd also like to know the destination, and if possible the timing. Thanks.

it's on hire to Victa Rail from DRS, and is used purely for shunting duties, replacing one of the 56s which returned to Leicester a couple of weeks ago. As far as I'm aware it won't be heading any actual workings out of Peak Forest.
