The steam railtour that wasn't! Class 67s stood in for the failed steam loco (I can't remember which) on "The Cathedrals Express" railtour, 1Z92 09.20 London Waterloo to Exeter St. Davids. DB Cargo (EWS) Class 67 no. 67020 pulls away from the loop at Chard Junction at 14.16, after arriving at 13.54 to cross with an up train. Out of sight is 67028 on the rear. Reflective white paint has been applied to the rails here to mitigate the effects of excessive summer heat.
