  • We see how Washford station looks after the S&D Guardians have left. Then new steam life being enjoyed at Blue Anchor Station as the engine runs round and the train prepares for departure after a one hour stay.

    Great to see Odney Manor being used at last. Also good to see an extended journey too.

      The next step will be Dunster, I expect with a diesel on the end.

      Not everyone hates diesels I heard passengers seeing the crompton with to saloon coach and a couple said ‘next time we will come on a diesel day’

    I think the fireman is the nice young chap who allowed me on the footplate of Odney Manor the year before last.
    He told me that he'd done his training on Dinmore Manor.

    I have seen pictures on the Internet yet ,where benches are placed in front of the station building for passengers. People sit on the benches or stand on the platform. Now I see the station empty. The train did not even stop, it just slowed down. It is strange to see this station like this.

      There is now a small group of supporters trying to bring the station back to life.

    Excellent video. Would love to be there, but am in locked down Melbourne, Australia thanks to our incompetent socialist state government (national one is OK), 17120 km from Blue Anchor.
    Love the (non-interlocked?) gates and tradtional signalbox with semaphore signals.
