We passed this going on the flyover on the way to babbacombe on Saturday when we arrived then it passed us going under as we sat waiting in traffic. We couldn't have timed it better if we tried.

[@BillsPhoneTeignmouth]

What a nice surprise 👍👍👍

[@andybyrne50]

Nice video Bill , never saw it today , busy raking the truck out for my marathon drive today. .

[@BillsPhoneTeignmouth]

Safe journeys 👍

[@SionsTrainVideos]

great speedy passes of them nice whistle at spray point on way back. lol i went to the station today and the announcements and display boards of saying when the next train is there all broken lol

[@BillsPhoneTeignmouth]

Thats a shame - Just not working or vandalised?

[@barrymillar2143]

😍😍👍👍👍

[@BillsPhoneTeignmouth]

Cheers! 👍👍👍

[@anndudley9023]

Lovely video 😊 I do need to ask is the steam train doing all the work or is the diesel one helping it along 🤔

[@BillsPhoneTeignmouth]

Steam train is doing the heavy pulling - Diesel providing electricity for the carriages and the kitchen - Plus available to take over needed 👍👍👍

[@trainsuk3525]

Not hanging around it was in a rush

[@BillsPhoneTeignmouth]

Indeed she was mate 👍

[@mrbigbadtrev]

👍 😺

[@BillsPhoneTeignmouth]

Thanks mate 👍👍👍 I put that 'Forget Me Not' pic in todays video as a 'reverse then & now' - Meaning instead of me showing a photo and telling people about it, I asked people to tell me about it instead 👍👍👍

[@mrbigbadtrev]

@@BillsPhoneTeignmouth Great idea. 😺

[@davidlean2879]

I'm a bit puzzled, why do these steam trains always tow a diesel loco behind them ??

[@17Blower]

It supplies power to the train for lights, sockets and in this case the kitchens and it acts as a backup in case something goes wrong with the steam locomotive.
