Good afternoon Keith/Roger/Jon,
I have attached shots of today's 2C64 0804 Nailsea & Backwell to Plymouth / 2M16 1052 Plymouth to Weston-super-Mare.
Booked as a Class 165/166 this week due to engineering work in the Bristol area.
Thanks, Mark.

Snoozing at Burngullow

57602 made a welcome appearance today (25.01.24) on a daytime sleeper-stock movement from Penzance to Exeter and back. Again, the 'proper' camera was left at home, so here is a drone shot - less than ideal in the kind of lighting we had this afternoon due to the microscopic image sensor found in the device, but there we go.
