The Industrial Railway Society "Rowntree Requiem" Railtour at Rowntree's Halt, York, on April 11, 1987. One of the shortest travelled railtours ever to run on the national network in the UK, the IRS organised the tour to coincide with their AGM held in York the same afternoon. The tour started from York at 12.35 and ran to the Rowntree Staff Halt on the Foss Island freight branch arriving at 12.45. It then returned to York at 13.10 with a 13.20 arrival giving a total of 45mins in service and a route mileage of just 2m 48ch (2½ miles) for the round trip. Six Bells Junction notes the vehicle as 53258 + 54053.
