enjoy the 37s gents last years was awsome

 

[Sun Chariot]

Great news, thanks for the links. Answers my recent thread's info request. And UK Steam now has timings for the Cornish Riviera. And BBC weather is looking darned good for Saturday. Full bore up Dainton, I say...

Njoy the 37s gents last years was awsome

Was that 'The Kernow Growler' 37401 with DRS's 37194+37087?

That was a really good day, i came from Portsmouth on the other train, we had 37401 (not you the real one) from Pompey Harbour to Westbury with 66188 on the rear, 40145 from Westbury to Penzance (as you probably seen), then i bought a ticket from Spitfire Railtours for 'The Kernow Growler' for a one way trip from Penzance to Plymouth, then waited for 40145 back to Westbury where they tied 66188 on the front for the trip back to Pompey with 37401 on the back!

Being as when i started the day all i was expecting was 2xEWS 37's i was quite pleased to finish the day with haulage behind 3x 37's, 1x 40 and a 66!

Great stuff..... If only more railtours would start from Pompey!

37409 failed at Abergavenny earlier on an Inspection Saloon trip bound for Shrewsbury, so that puts hope of it working on Saturday even further down the list. P.S. there was nothing to at all suggest that this would work to Penzance, just a loco I would love if it did appear.

[visibleimagery]

I don't suppose anybody would have as detailed timings as this but for the slightly more interesting stuff on the same day!

The Cornishman - Class 56
The Kernow Explorer - x2 Class 37's

Many thanks to anyone who can help in advanced.
I know that the times are displayed on the respective sites but not for my local stations and I know you could work this out but it makes it easier for me if the times are available.

Also, final question?
Does anybody know when the 'Western' will be travelling down to carry out the Diesel hauled part of the 'The Cornish Rivera tour', (Par to Penzance) if it hasn't travelled down already?


Thanks muchly!

D1015 enroute to Cornwall to assist with Steam Dreams train tonight and Monday morning.

 

[richw]

i seen the class 37s passing over foundry square viaduct in hayle about 1200 ish, looked good

 

[Sun Chariot]

I missed seeing the Tractors on Dainton but the Grids sounded fab. Takes me back to '88, when I had two of 'em London-Plymouth (and two 58's back!) for Lara's open day. Even the brace of 67's made a passable noise up the bank. Almost put the King's & Castle's less-than-noisy effort to shame...

 

[visibleimagery]

Well what a day it turned out to be...!

I got a nice suntan in the morning waiting for the 37s and 56s; fortunately they were running on time, I didn't bother waiting for the 67s, after that it all started to go downhill some what!
I caught some more ‘rays’ again waiting in an open field with no shelter for the double headers of which were an hour or so late; apparently one of the generators in a support coach caught fire, other rumours say it was a 'hot-box'?

Later on in the evening I waited for the 56s in another field this time with the sun beating on my back and neck, after an hour nothing showed so I decided to go home.
Feeling pretty sure that I had probably missed the 56s I went to St. David’s to hopefully see the 37s depart, they were scheduled off SD at 09.52ish… to my surprise at about 9.15 the 56s showed they’re faces and fortunately stopped, so that made for a nice departure.
Then while still waiting for the 37s to show, the 67s appeared almost 90mins late, not that I’m too worried about these, it was a bonus to see anyway. Finally as the light had fallen and I nearly decided to ‘call-it’ the wonderful 37s turned up in all there glory making for a wonderful evening departure. So the conclusion is, despite spending a collective time 4 hours waiting for trains, the sun tan is looking good!

I will upload my videos shortly and give a link here.

Thanks for all the timings by the way.

 

[Techniquest]

Reason why you thought you'd missed them was because of a lineside fire in the Totnes area, which caused rather heavy delays to all of the tours and service trains in Devon/Cornwall.

Ah no wonder then, of course they we're heavily delayed but I had no clue why?
Thanks.

Truro area

 

[Techniquest]

Heard it was the Totnes area, my bad!

 

[33056]

It was a lineside fire just west of Truro. The class 56 tour (of which only one loco worked in each direction, 311 out and 312 return), was held at St Erth starting signal for well over an hour - it got back to Birmingham about two hours late. Not sure how the other two tours fared, no doubt suffered a similar amount of delay.

 

[Techniquest]

Aye, we didn't do much better on the Spitfire job. 73 late off Penzance, 94 late arriving into Bristol Temple Meads.

Bet it wasn't much fun sitting at St Erth for so long on the Grid tour!
