Cornish Sunshine!!
Craig Munday

Whilst our US cousins enjoyed a total eclipse of the sun - we were glad to see ANY sun at all. The last few weeks having been particularly torrid, the brief spell of brightness was enjoyed by all. 
50042 was out on the B&W railway Sat 19th running 6 trips on the Lilac timetable, and is seen in glorious light dropping down to Bodmin Parkway with the 10.50 from General. 
Then on Mon 21st, 66206 was photographed working the 2 x Carne Point / Rocks clay. 

All the best, Craig                                                                           
​Thanks Craig, for 'making hay' or 'taking photos' while the sun shines.
