The Mayflower - 15th September 2012

some photos of tour at taunton , totnes, plymouth at the mayflower 15-9-12 - keyhamtrain video at keyhamtrain's channel - YouTube

 

Nice shots all,particularly like the one with Tangmere framed by the bridge,very different and refreshing.


Went out for a few record shots on Saturday but got a fairly decent one at Woodrow Barton on the return:

Looked a superb combination!

 

And they went like stink. We would have easily made Plymouth to Exeter inside the hour if it had not been for the signal checks from Danish Warren and an even time 61.5mph average start to stop Exeter to Taunton. We went into Whiteball tunnel with the brakes hard on. The even time run was done with no 75mph+ running.

 

Hello All,
