Roger,
A visit to Silverton. Here I was able to photograph 66116 and 66098 with the Rail Head Treatment train(0850 Westbury to Salisbury, then back to Westbury and then to return home to St Blazey.. Then cross the road for 66620 with the 1542 6C28 Exeter Riverside Hansons to Whatley Quarry which was running around two hours early!! heading in the opposite direction.

Hi Roger, Good to see you at Marsh Mills the other week. Your picture on the CRS website today of WMV stirred memories! The collection of blue portacabins and two storey building behind were the first buildings put up as site offices by the contractors Kier Ltd who had just started the huge Submarine Refit Complex job in the Dockyard. Though your pic was taken on a Sunday, I was in that building the following day having just been transferred to this contract from Head Office (I was a Quantity Surveyor then). From my desk I could see the Viaduct’s southern end so observed what passed by, particularly the shunting moves to & from the Dockyard branch. Little did I know then, how involved I was to become with that line! Thanks for posting it and sending me down ‘memory lane’. Cheers, Paul Burkhalter
