Sat 20th Mar The Dartmouth Express

Post by mow »

UK Steam shows that The Dartmouth Express will run behind Bittern 60019 from Temple Meads.

60019: Bristol-Kingswear (but RTC's site shows via Westbury?), although the times are still to be confirmed. If it does run from Bristol, I wonder which platform it will depart from, are there clearance issues with A4s using Platform 3/4 at Temple Meads?

I think it's the Down Goods Loop which is, I believe, at Westmoreland. I'm sure others will correct me if I'm wrong.
