(Clan Line) Atlantic coast express, Taken from my video yesterday (12th Oct). Back in the day Eddystone, Bl-m-vale, Or 92 squadron might for whatever reason need to run on to north Devon! Then i would bung in water hose and chuck coal forward! Coal on coal was difficult and so little time! Heavy if follow tender sides? Easier to get Clan off…

Hi Jon, No, I had a Latte coffee outside the station! Very nice! And loads of passengers going in and out, Quite entertaining with Hen parties, Rugby supporters, And shopping expeditions! Many passengers on platform moved forward to see Clan Line go through! Blocking my long view? I hadn’t planned for that! Got bit of it though.

Oh mother! I’m half blinded with a broken nose! Overcast and the sun a summers dream (Think that Wordsworth with no host of golden daffodils)? The diesel thingy test photo! Has a broken nose cone! And the Golden Hind Steam tour due at 10-55am turned up 20 minutes early! You’ve never seen such a flap! The guy talking to me raced off because…

I know i write too much but its best to mention what engine and where its going i think? The time spent getting there! The position or right spot? Equates to the footballer who runs about for 89 minutes for the one minute opportunity to get the winning goal that makes it worth while?
