1st May 1987

With power car no. 43141 leading, and HST forming the 08.30 Penzance to London Paddington passes Newton Abbot West Signal Box, with the David and Charles offices in the background, behind the fine signal gantry. I think it is this signal gantry that D&C acquired and relocated at the entrance to their premises once the resignalling of the area had been completed. You can also see the end of one of the coaches owned by the publisher.
