Exminster, Powderham and Cockwood last Saturday to see 6024 & 5029, also meant to see a pair of grids, but that plan went up in smoke when half of the Cornish lineside did the same thing...

Some photos today at Follaton; near Totnes. With a XC HST and the Freightliner sand due at a similar time it was worth a visit to a location I had yet to visit.

Some photos from Shaldon, on the non railway side of the River Teign in Devon. The tide was in, sun was out and it was very warm. What better excuse to fot the FGW loco hauled set?

A few photos from Saturdays Diesel gala on the South Devon Railway, a good event and very reasonably priced. D6737 looked resplendent with its new yellow front ends.

Went to Staverton on the South Devon Railway today to see W55000 the pioneer bubble car on its final weekend of regular operation, as next week its kettle time!
Rather typically whilst sat in the car it was full sun, however as the train came, the clouds conveniently came in. You can't make it...
With both Royal 67s on the FGW loco hauled diagram I figured i'd better go and see them. With some spare time in the afternoon I went to a very windy Hollicombe near Paignton to see 67006 leading 2U20 PGN - CDF

Away from all the excitement of the snow in the South East, FGWs new service from Cardiff - Paignton and return was running as booked on weekdays. On what must have been the coldest day of this winter, I travelled to Exeter on the service. I'd recommend a 'bash' as its so much more dignified...
Went to see the FGW loco hauled set working the 1247 Paignton - Cardiff today as I had an afternoon off school. Some rather testing lighting conditions but at least the sun came out!
