WSR 9351 @ Sampford Brett - a photo on Flickriver

            With hindsight it wasn't meant to be weather-wise from the start... we departed june 1st and the weather was fine in the UK for some time, and the forcast was very good for the next 10 days or so  two days prior to our depart, but suddenly predictions start to deteriorate very rapidly over de course of the last day in Holland. At least when we departed the first two days would still be good and there was a forcast for an inprovement later in de next week... when we landed it was unexpectedly foggy and grey though and none of the predicted sunshine ever came.

This year our main destination was Cornwall, but with a prelude at de South Devon Railway's branch line gala. On our way from the airport to Devon we decided to visit the West Somerset Railway on a normal running day. Here 'fake' Mogul 9351 passes Sampford Brett on it's way from Bishops Lydeard to Minehead. 9351 is an rebuilt Mogul 4300 class, but originally it was a 'Prairie' tank locomotive saved from the famous Barry scrapyard! The WSR rebuilt it themselves and gave it numer 9351 according to how Great Western would have renumbered it if they did the job in their days.
