I love this shot Roger. I see it is very popular still, with people waiting on both sides. Nothing better on a sunny day than a steam train ride through the countryside and ending by the sea at Minehead :-))

Although I grew up in Somerset, I left before it became a preserved line and regrettably I have never got back there since. Nice to see a 28xx class. I always preferred them to the passenger locos.
