61306 ‘Mayflower’ powers through Tiverton Parkway - The English Riviera Express.

Saphos Trains’ English Riviera Express with LNER B1 61306 ‘Mayflower’
The first shot shows the B1 accelerating along Brunels sea wall through Dawlish after being looped at Dawlish Warren.
From here I decided to meet a couple of friends in Plymouth before heading out for the return. On the train back I worked out I could get the train at Newton Abbot and Tiverton Parkway. Origionally it was routed via Platform 1 at Newton Abbot but it was changed to Platform 3 instead. After a quick dash to Tiverton Parkway the B1 could be heard for well over a minute making a spirited run through the station, albeit with a push from the diesel but still an impressive shot.

The Boat at the start is the “princess Marina “ and is a ferry boat which works the ferry between starcross and Exmouth. This summer it made its long awaited return to Dawlish for boat cruises up and down the coast.
