West Somerset Wanderer. 12th March
Cycled out to Cogload again, got one crap picture...still, nice location 
Saw 43025 Exeter on the way back, possibly with 43192 City Of Truro tailing...it was City something I'm sure! If you've got easy access to FGW formations then you can check
Of course I'd have much preferred 21C101 Exeter and 3440 City Of Truro

Na, they aren't worth it.
I was over-looking West Junction from the Bath Road and only managed to take two pictures. The low sun, which was in direct alignment with the engine and me, ruined the first, and I wasnÆt quick enough on the second so the engine was cut in half by bushes and trees as it disappeared under the bridge.
It wouldn't have been so bad if had taken some shots of 6024 earlier in the day, but I over-slept. Not a good day.
Oh well, must do better for the Avon Branch Explorers on the 28th.
