50047 Swiftsure. Lostwithiel. 10.00 Penzance - Paddington. 3rd July 1986
Lostwithiel really was an idyllic station, exotic flora abounding (to a yorkshireman anyways!) and often a rake of Cornish china clay hooded four wheel wagons in the sidings to the left of camera. On a summers day with proper summer weather, Swiftsure lives up to her name accelerating after the reverse curve against the grade non stop through the station bound for London Paddington.
