Great shots there Liam! Is that the first Freightliner 66 you've seen then, because they don't normally use that line do they?

I found a railtour that is operating in your area in a few weeks:

Friday - Saturday, 14th - 15th July, 2006

CORNWALL AND DEVON BECKON FOR OF THE DRS 37'S


York - Temple Hirst Junc. - Doncaster - Swinton - Sheffield - Chesterfield - Ambergate Junc. - Derby - Burton on Trent - Tamworth High Level - Birmingham New St. - Selly Oak - Bromsgrove - Cheltenham Spa - Charfield - Bristol Parkway - Bristol Temple Meads - Bridgwater - Taunton - Exeter - Tiegmouth - Newton Abbot - Totnes - Plymouth - Liskeard - Lostwithiel - Par - Truro - Falmouth Dock (reverse) - Truro (reverse) - St Erth - Penzance (two and half hour morning break / reverse) - St Erth - Truro - Par - Lostwithiel - Liskeard - Plymouth - Totnes - Newton Abbot - Teignmouth - Exeter - Crediton - Barnstaple (reverse) - Crediton - Exeter (reverse) - Taunton - Bridgwater - Bristol Temple Meads - Bristol Parkway - Charfield - Cheltenham Spa -Worcester Shrub Hill - Kidderminster - Galton Junc. - Brimingham New St. - Tamworth High Level - Burton on Trent - Stenson Junc. - Trent Juncs. - Toton Centre - Pye Bridge Junc. - Chesterfield - Sheffield - Swinton - Doncaster - Temple Hirst Junc. - York

I think that the service stops as follows:

Pick-up Points Depart (Fri) Return (Sat)
York 19:00 22:55
Doncaster 19:30 22:25
Sheffield 20:00 21:55
Chesterfield 20:20 21:35
Derby 20:50 20:50
Burton on Trent 21:05 20:35
Tamworth High Level 21:25 20:15
Birmingham New St 21:45 19:55
Cheltenham Spa 22:45 18:35
Bristol Parkway 23:30 17:50
Bristol Temple Meads 23:45 17:35

I couldn't guess when it passes through the stations in bold, but you may be able towork it out...;)

Where you at Newton Abbot at around 16:00ish? If so it could've been the FLHH Thursdays only 6M37 15:30 Moorswater-Earles sidings. I don't really know much about the freight down there :confused:
