After a hiatus of anything interesting visiting the Duchy, the Bank Holiday weekend saw the first Charter visit. The steam loco worked the Royal Duchy only between Bristol Temple Meads and Plymouth due to ongoing turning issues.

Views of trains along the Teign Estuary are, to us, quite rare with views being limited by difficult access governed by tide states.
The 'Royal Duchy' runs alongside the Teign on its way towards Plymouth followed by diesel haulage on to Par. A delightful view . 30th August 2020. Copyright Paul Barlow.
