The ubiquitous 153 heads into the reverse curves at terras crossing with the 2L28 1434 Looe to Liskeard Copyright Ron Westwater Note the relics of transport of a forgotten age, the lock to the left of the crossing.Copyright Ron Westwater Colesloggett Chris Harvey Cogload John Cornelius ![]() This picture, copyright John Cornelius is taken from a location privileged to railway staff. This up train as well as passing under the Bristol down line is also passing over a bridge over a lane which connects two fields either side of the four tracks at this location. The protective fencing is around an open point in the lanes passage under the railway. Taking a look at the current Google Earth view at this location will reveal a Bristol bound HST. Templecombe Mike Morant ![]() For some, perhaps many, viewers this iks a dream picture. Templecombe on the Somerset & Dorset upper sees Fowler 2P 4-4-0 40568 piloting Bulleid original West Country pacific 34043 Combe Martin as they double-head a Bradford - Bournemouth train on 26/6/54. The apparent blemishes in the sky are actually birds, possibly partridge, scared into activity by 40568's safety valves lifting. [Mike Morant collection] Comments are closed.
