TRANSITION
Class31 31180 heads through Dawlish Warren with a short freight probably bound for Marsh Mills at Plymouth August 1986
The lower-quadrant signals were still in operation with the replacement colour-light signals installed. The resignalling was commissioned along here in May 1987.
We had a lot of holidays in Devon in the 1980's including one stay in the flat above the Post Office at the Warren. You could see the trains from there but not really photographable. The one day I didn't venture out after breakfast there was a double headed 50's working of freightliner containers presumably a special from Devonport. Shame RTT's wasn't around.
