Dear sir,
I know it’s not in Cornwall, but I went up to see the trains at the Swanage railway diesel gala. Here are some photos on the 08/05/25.

Many thanks, Jonathan - great to see the heritage locos in the sunshine.
Swanage falls within the area we cover with the website, so we'd be happy to see any further photographs of the weekends diesel gala.

It's not just bushes and grass which have been cut, some pretty big trees have had the chop. 08.05.2025, copyright Tony Shore.
Lock 22 of the Liskeard & Looe Union Canal. It is reportedly due to the existence of this watercourse and fears of contaminating it that much of the wood chipping further along the branch is to take place at Moorswater, not in-situ. 08.05.2025, copyright Tony Shore.
