    67009 leans into the curve as it clears Teignmouth station. The driver has opened his charge up judging by the hint of clag coming from this 125mph rated type 5 locomotive. 1E41 1723 Plymouth to Low Fell mail comes out of the station cutting and onto the sea wall section of the line.
    A 47 in yer face!! 47830 fills the frame and takes the curve off the sea wall section to turn west to pass through the station and run up the Teign Estuary. The train is 1C44 1433 Paddington to Plymouth.
    The final location for the day is Cockwood Harbour and first to pass is 43080 and 43195 working 1V51 1208 Newcastle to Plymouth via a reversal at Paington and Totnes.
