I've come across this short silent colour film of the last special from Bodmin to Wadebridge on the BFI site.
Many thanks for letting us know David.
The Bodmin Lions Club organises two last trips from Bodmin Road station to Wadebridge on a frosty December morn. A Westward TV news crew joins the club on 17th December 1978 on a diesel train for one final outing. Crowds gather along the route and the Mayor of Wadebridge and the Wadebridge Lions Club greet the last daytrippers. Bodmin Road is today Bodmin Parkway in the civil parish of St Winnow with a Great Western Railway service that links Plymouth with Penzance.
