A gentleman by the name of Nick Raven posted on Facebook the attached photo which is believed to be a Swindon Class 120 2 car unit in the Looe branch platform at Liskeard, a photo I have not seen before. Mr. Raven acknowledges that. although he owns the photograph, he does not know of the original photographer, I have contacted him and he has agreed that I forward it to you for consideration and if published on the website that the photographer is unknown.

Barnstaple - Meeth.
Fremington
Ivor Moorey

Good afternoon,
Following on from the nostalgic photos taken at Fremington in the 70’s, I’ve found this film on YouTube that may interest you. Barnstaple to Torrington and Watergate halt in the 1960’s. It’s film number 38263. 
Kind regards
Ivor 
The film maybe a little faint as old fims often are but as one who travelled the line only once it brings back vivid memories.  Many thanks Ivor.
