Dear Keith or Roger,
Please find attached a shot taken in the Glynn valley during October 2011. In lovely autumn light, 43124 is captured about half a mile west of Largin viaduct, climbing towards Doublebois with the 0845 Penzance - Paddington "Cornish Riviera", on 1st October 2011. This was a fabulous spot for a few years after the trees were removed, but they've grown back since!
Best Regards, Chris Harvey, Bodmin.
Many thanks Chris you caught a real autumnal look there.

We welcome back to our pages after a long period of illness Ron Kosys. Ron, over the years has provided us with an amazing collection of pictures from his previous days of railway explorations. This time we go back to 1976 and the last days of the Westerns. Here's hope for a steady return to full health Ron.
This picture, over the fence is D1034 Western Dragoon. The loco has been shorn of its nameplates - the last duty done - it awaits the scrapman. 30th May 1976. copyright Ron Kosys.
