Passing Dawlish

Sun is shining on cross country today as we are making good time

And now approaching Exeter St Davids

Into the platform

I hopre you enjoyed my run from PLymouth to Bristol,I'm hoping to upload this activity very soon,I just have to put the finishing touches on it then we should be good to go

Excellent shots!

Fantastic, eagerly awaiting this.
One minor quibble, in your second the shot the 66 is hauling HTVs, which arent around on the network today. Maybe you could change them for another, more suitable wagon, not only for the time period but for region too?
Otherwise brilliant!

Ok I'm not too clued up on freight operations,I will alter the wagons and put the standard EWS HTA hoppers on instead

Fantastic shots.

Some great shots and I look forward to the activity.
