    My footage from Nunney's run on the Torbay Express yesterday, looking superb through Teignmouth but sounding utterly fantastic through Torre!

    Just out of interest who supplies the coaching stock for the Torbay Express, nice to see a uniform rake in appropriate colours instead of the usual "patchwork".

    Just magnificent. A real credit to her keepers. Loco and train looked and sounded simply the best charging along the GWR Main Line. What a contrast to being shoved indignantly from behind!

    Riveira do seem a bit better at turning out a uniform rake this year, though if unlucky, you can still get blue and cream or blood and custard Mk2's on the end, or if your really unlucky, ex Virgin air cons.

    Is it still planed to apply the early BR crest to 5029 or has this plan now changed and she's keeping the British Railway's lettering.

    Anyone know what is happening with 5029? She didn't run the Dartmouth express does anyone know why? So I'm assuming she's still at the WSR? Is she actually moving to the SVR? Shame she hasn't been used as much as she possible seeing as though she only came back this year after a little overhaul!

    Latest issue of Heritage Railway (out on 21st) says that 5029 has a problem with her blower.

    There is some minor repair work to be completed before we move to Southall for the winter, keep an eye on the 5029 facebook page for the latest news and updates.
