The Bodmin & Wenford
Diesel Gala
Sat 22nd September 2018

As Friday was a most beautiful day weather wise, Saturday was the complete opposite as it rained all day. However I braved the elements until my camera gave up the ghost during the middle of the afternoon. Waterlogged no doubt!

Pathfinder Tours, The Marches Cornishman.
By Mick House.

DRS class 37s, 37 602 & 37 606 were on the front of The Marches Cornishman with thirteen bogies trailing. It was just a pity that the weather was not a bit kinder for them on the train and those of us out there taking the pictures. The train departed Shrewsbury on time at 04.50 and arrived at Penzance one minute late at 12.55 and departed right time at 15.36, heading back to Shrewsbury.
Words and photos by Mick House.
With additional photos by Ollie Turrell Roger Salter Keith Jenkin Jacob Hampson & Roger Winnen
.

I am sure more photos will be added as they come in.

B & W Diesel Gala
Andrew Triggs

Just returned from a photographic trip to the 1st day of the 2 day B&W Diesel Gala with Guest Locomotive DBC 67028 (with the forecast looking poor at best tomorrow on the Saturday, making the most of Friday's decent weather) find 4 shots enclosed for CRS, with the emphasis on lineside shots rather than the run of the mill standard station shots
          All the Best,  Andrew               
Many thanks Andrew.
