This train was actually labouring a little as it climbed up to Whiteball Tunnel at 09.35. I imagined that these IETs would have flattened the hills and storm up the incline. GWR Class 802s nos. 802017 and 802009 form the 1A76 06.12 Penzance to London Paddington, the first train of the day off the Cornish terminus.
