Oh I do like to be beside the seaside

Well, I do if the weather forecasters are even close to being right, and we get a decent amount of sunshine! But here's what I did get.

FGW HST in the sun, with the dark brooding clouds approaching from Exmouth direction

Both Royal 67s working the Paington, cloud in as booked, and bloody hi-vis workmen too

An alternative crop, and I also 'removed' the workmen too

Very lucky, but why couldn't they face each other?

A full HST set with old livery buffet car

I did my best when the weather went truly bad as the XC HST approached

More royals as the skips return, and a pair of swans are spied too

Thanks for looking, all comments welcome, let me know what you think of the water marking too.

Great pictures I like the Class 220 'Voyager' and the 'Royal' Class 67s (Last picture).

Where abouts did you drive to to get the view from the Shaldon side of the river? Something to do in half term!

What, a local boy asking a midlander for directions in his own back yard? Anyway, who mentioned driving? Thus may sound old fashioned, but we walked to/from Teignmouth station. Just get across Shaldon bridge and turn left then follow your nose. None of us had ever been here before, so ergo, it must be easy to find. Hope you get better weather than we did.

Fair enough, having walked to Shaldon Bridge I simply assumed you were driving as its a fair trek!

Some cracking photos there! my favorate is the cropped 67 and XC HST although the Voyager with Swans is brilliant!
