Hi Trev,
Excellent photos, as ever.
I was there yesterday (Sunday), I think you had much better weather on Saturday.
At least one of your shots shows the big difference in the shade of green between loco and tender on the WC.
I was very impressed with the way Wadebridge tackled the climb from Leekbrook, no slipping apparent. It did slip later on a lesser gradient though.
The N7 looks great, I believe that it is due to move to pastures new sometime soon.
Cheers, Solario

Ay up!
Love the texture of the exhausts. And as for the "Pines" headboard?

Thanks guys for your comments.
Solario, We were at Bradnop Bridge for the first run of Wadebridge, it was slipping two or three times on its way and, when it past us it was literally crawling.
