A rail tour from Slough to Par was running today, hauled by West Coast Railway’s Class 47 no. 47772 "Carnforth TMD", seen here. But where's the train you ask? Well, on reaching Taunton the "Duff" came off and was replaced by ex-LMS "Jubilee" no. 45596 "Bahamas". The '47 then ran on ahead light engine, in order to be in position for the return trip. So at 11.58 it's seen here near East Cliff running as 0Z90 11.07 Taunton to Plymouth, the children giving the crew a friendly wave.
