71000 Duke of Gloucester on the Cornish Riviera September 2026.

Note: Some of the audio in the later clips is not quite aligned properly. Apologies. Hi subscribers and friends of the channel Apologies, it's been a while, but I have a new video for you today. So sit back and relax as I chase the Cornish Riviera Railtour operated by Steam Dreams from London Paddington to Penzance. Then, the return movement of the Duke a few days later and some bonus footage. We start at Taunton to see D400 arrive with the train. Here, the locomotive swapped for 71000. Then we head to Exter to catch Dukes arrival and departure to Exeter New Yard for a break. It then returns to the station to continue to Penzance. I get in front to catch at Plymouth. We see her arrive 7 minutes early after stretching its legs for a water stop. A few pictures later, and im on the move again to Cornwall for the final shot of the day. So what better place than Saltash! After a fantastic and long day. We return back to Keynsham a few days later for another bonus movement. This being the 47848 and SR West Country Class 34028 Eddystone as it makes its way to Bristol for stabling. We luckily catch Eddystone light engine through Temple Meads as it heads to Bristol St Philips Marsh H.S.T.D. for resting overnight. Ready to take the RTC Royal Dutchy tour to Par the next day. Finally, with a literal split second jump ahead of Duke returning to Southall from Bishops Lydeard, she sees me catching her through Bristol Parkway. Earphones recommend for this epic pass through the station after a signal check just outside. Thanks to all the lovely people I met along the way as well. Hope you enjoy the video and im looking forward to the next video in October!
