Is this the last revenue earning freight to Moorswater?

Hi Keith and Roger, I hope you're both keeping well.  Here's my picture of today's cement train, possibly the last one, I don't know.  I wonder whether we will establish which is to be the very last revenue earning freight train on this short section of the Looe branch line.  Whenever it is, it will be a sad, and historic, occasion.
Best wishes to you both, Peter.
