My footage of 4277 Hercules & 75014 Braveheart in charge of services on the DSR, filmed at a variety of locations between 7th & 10th of August 2023.

 

Just back from a 10 day holiday in Devon staying in Goodrington Sands, compilation video from clips caught throughout the 10 days featuring 4277, 75014 and 4555. Photos to follow...

 

Down next week anyone know what is likely to be out running next week?

Also noticed the observation saloon has been out of action this summer

Can 100% say it won't be Omaha or 5239 - 75014 or 4277 are the most likely candidates though 4555 has seen use recently too

 

5239 will be working tomorrow- but on the Mid-Hants

 

Thanks, be nice to see 4555 running haven’t seen that since I was a young kid!

No, it was certainly running a couple of weeks ago.

 

Ah ok perhaps just the pictures I have seen then

Think they just take it off when it's the most busy, was back on end of August looking at videos online.

 

The observation saloon was in use Bank Holiday Monday in August

 

A short video of GWR Prairie Tank 4555 on the approach to Kingswear on the Dartmouth Steam Railway in South Devon:

 

7827, 5239 and 75014 is action between 13th and 20th August 2024.

 

Anyone knows what’s out for the final week of 2 train timetable

I'm planning to pop down there tomorrow but obviously that'll be too late to be a useful answer for you! I'm hoping for a last look at the S160 running, having only seen it working once and never had a ride behind it there, but I expect that's a very long shot.

 

Standard and manor out today. 160 not running.

 

Thanks! They're always good value on the hills anyway.

 

Yep, Manor and Standard again today, both sounding excellent up Goodrington bank.
