  • I wonder if Merchant Navy Clan Line or its footplate crew glanced 72A (Exmth jct) way as it sped over Posloe to Prince Charles road lane for Blackboy tunnel and Exeter Central? Still going fast here with heavy braking before Exeter city football ground! The supermarket car park (now) might make a good view point?

      • 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.
