Back through the forest to Respryn Bridge for some more railway shots in the evening light. Two HST only minutes apart, then only IET until sunset. #BrelephantAndCastle
In case you wonder: GWR is the company commissioning today's posters, of which you will have replicas in your home in 50 years. 🥰 #BrelephantAndCastle
Further up the line at the lovely Bodmin Parkway station, far away from Bodmin town. The branch line to Bodmin town is now home to a heritage railway. #BrelephantAndCastle
An afternoon walk along the quiet valley of river Fowey, combined with some railway photography. And in the middle of nowhere, there was a booth selling coffee, tea and cakes. Perfect! #BrelephantAndCastle
You guessed it, by 'Castle' I meant the few remaiming HST sets of Great Western Railway, also known as 'Castle Class' due to their nameplates. Only three weekday diagrams are left, mostly west of Plymouth and the rumor has it, that this could be their last summer. #BrelephantAndCastle
The lovely village of Lostwithiel was my base for the next days. Time to prepare with literature by @keithbarrow80.bsky.social#BrelephantAndCastle
Great Western Railways, however, is somehow sending mixed signals. I don't feel very welcome... 😬 #BrelephantAndCastle
To the south! 5 hrs in a CrossCountry Voyager to the nearly deserted station in Plymouth, then onboard a nearly empty Great Western Railway regional service through east Cornwall at sunset. After the busy North and Midlands earlier today, this felt so peaceful. 🥰 #BrelephantAndCastle
