Keith,
Had to go to Penzance this afternoon and was surprised to see 57 306 "Her Majesty's Railway Inspectorate 175" through the drizzle and rain on the sleeper.
Best regards, Roger     Many thanks, hope you kept dry.

Westbury

Rebuilt Bulleid Battle of Britain pacific No. 34050 Royal Observer Corps beautifully turned out and depicted during a water stop at Westbury. I was a participant on this tour and 34050 performed admirably on the run from Paddington to Weymouth entirely on the former GWR route. It's work wasn't yet done as it banked the train, by then hauled by 53808, from Weymouth as far as Bincombe tunnel signal box.
