- The Midland Pullman is owned and run by Locomotive Services Ltd. ( LSL) The tour was from Eastleigh to Penzance and was the first occasion that the train has been to Devon & Cornwall.
The power cars were numbers 43055 and 43046 which is named Geoff Drury 1930-1999. He was honoured with a nameplate reading his name and "Steam Preservation and Track Recording Pioneer" below.
This train will make two more forays down to Kingswear on Aug 29th and Penzance on Sept 25th. June will see eight more special trains pass along the sea wall, the first of which will be powered by two diesel locomotives this coming Wednesday 2nd June.

I remember the blue Pullman with he two windows from when I was a kid, there was some kind of transfer or emblem on the front of them and they always looked very futuristic and gorgeous to me. I went on one once when I was about 8, when we went on holidays somewhere in England from Cardiff station. I miss seeing them and the class 37's that used to bring freight up and down the lines here in those days. Now we only have one line and short trains.
Happy days on Dawlish beach with young family in the 80,s but that beats it all ,wonderfull and exilerating.
Stunning 👏🏼 beautiful collection of fly-by's
Many thanks!
Must admit that livery looks absolutely stunning on the HST!
It's so amazing to see we are getting back our Great British Railways , So fantastic to watch 👍👍👍👍
Thank you Lee.
Nice to also see Teignmouth station. I used to do the trip from Dawlish Warren to Teignmouth every day for school from 1966 t0 1971. An amazing piece of railway engineering.
Thanks for this video. Gorgeous.
Glad you enjoyed it.
Nice to see a proper length HST on the seawall again
Indeed it is!
Excellent camerawork. The colour scheme is superb and really brings back memories of the original !
Thank Colin Campbell for the camera work. :-)
thats my childhood right there.
Great video and the train is stunning and the engine is it original you can tell because the normal HST’s are a low rumble sound but this one is a high sound engine and I saw it at Dawlish Warren
Listening to this I suspect the set may have Paxman VP185 prime movers - perhaps someone with greater knowledge can confirm. They're not Valentas but they don't sound like the usual MTU powered sets either.
How fabulous! Thanks for filming it
Great work Neil.
Thank Jack.
i wont be able to forget that day as thats the day when i proposed to my girl and i spotted that at Dawlish Warren about 5 minutes before i did
What a wonderful story. Congratulations from us all at Dawlish Beach Cams.
hi great video, the blue pullman looks the part down there unlike that hideous 800 thing, come back the westerns !
When a Blue HST meets the Blue Sea!
👍🏴
why does it sound like they got a valenta engine? good video though

if youre going to create a new pullman and go to all that trouble ,wouldnt be worth at least just sorting out the drivers windows to look like the original

Tricky business, getting cheap b&b in Penace. should've tried Penzance - much more reasonable there!
