Nr Wrangaton
Clive Smith

57605 'Totnes Castle' heads the 5C99 11.06 Reading Depot - Penzance sleeper ECS towards Wrangaton from Aish taken from Cheston Bridge on Primrose Lane. First Group this week released a provision for  expressions of interest from suppliers for five bi-mode locomotives for use on Great Western Railway’s Sleeper Service.This would appear to signify the beginning of the end for the class 57s on the sleeper service although they probably have a couple of years at least.
Regards, Clive Smith.

A very nice location Clive  - many thanks also for the information concerning possible Class 57 replacements. The hill in the distance is Brent Hill at 1019', a noticeable feature.
