A Day of Steam, Tornado, Tangmere, and Hemerdon Fail. 020815

Clips of two visitors to the South West, Tornado and Tangmere on Sunday 2 Aug, 2015. ( Nothing for ages then 2 at once.)

First clip is LNER A1 4-6-2 60163 Tornado passing Langstone Rock at Dawlish Warren with the Torbay Express. Bristol to Kingswear.
Then SR Light Pacific 4-6-2 34067 Tangmere with the Royal Duchy Bristol to Par passing the same location and followed around Dawlish Bay until entering the tunnel.

Location is now changed to Kingswear with the departure of the Paignton and Dartmouth Railways 2-8-0T 5239 Goliath to Paignton.
Same location and the return from Paignton after turn, water and coaling if needed of Tornado now in reverse ready to return back to Bristol with the Torbay Express, happily singing as she passes. After a false start (reason not known) we see the departure from Kingswear and follow the train around the bay. ( Sound very quite at start of this clip due to distance ( see the heat shimmer ) and the Mic battery very low and as usual no spare battery with me.)

Next clip is at Hemerdon Bank waiting for Tangmere to climb with the Royal Duchy. Tangmere smoking well as usual can be seen between the over grown track side tree's as she slowly climbs the bank then comes to a complete halt well and truly stuck, engine just out of sight.

Next location is back in Plymouth with The Royal Duchy and Tangmere being towed back into Plymouth Station around 2100.
Assume passengers went back to Bristol on normal service train ??.
