British Railways 4-6-0 Class 78XX number 7827 ‘Lydham Manor’ in action on a 2-day photo charter at the Dartmouth Steam Railway in Devon, UK. The charter was organised by TimeLine Events (TLE) who also paid for the rake of BR Mk1 coaches to be repainted into a more authentic 1950s ‘chocolate & cream’ livery.
7827, in early British Railways lined black livery, is seen working hard on both south and northbound trains in various locations along the line.
Many thanks to TLE and the railway staff for making the charter such a success.
