As we sit on our train waiting for the late-running 1430 departure from
Ravenglass, River Esk arrives with the train from Dalegarth
![River Mite, Ravenglass and Eskdale Railway](../../images/2006/2006-08/2006-08-07-151921_small.jpg)
Having arrived at Dalegarth, our locomotive River Mite is turned on the
turntable ready to take the train back to Ravenglass, but we are going for a
walk down to the river.

Henry has come to help, and now races back as Ellie gets going again. He
certainly seems to be enjoying himself!

And back they go again!
