Hi all,

Just a rough clip of the former Train in Question passing starcross Near Dawlish Yesterday,

Also a very short clip of the recent Cathedrals Express on the Southern line, all a bit spur of the moment i'm afraid.

Finally from last year, a clip of the 'Mayflower' re-starting at starcross, and a night time clip of 6204 from the crossing barriers at Exeter St Davids, as it departs into the darkness.

All clips a bit low quality, it was either that or have silly file sizes :(

cheers,

Dan

lol, agreed ;)

i was hoping for a little more steam on my line this year, ( Waterloo-Exeter), but i think that the singular Cathedrals Express is all we're being given :-?
