71000 Duke of Gloucester Devonian 28 May 2007 Bristol-Plymouth, including record climb to Dainton
Here's a video of the 'Devonian' of the 28 May 2007. Firstly departing Bristol Temple Meads. Then seen at the water stop at Newton Abbot before the record climb to Dainton. Not sure if it still stands.The tunnel was entered at 40mph with Ray Churchill driving..Film is a little shaky in places due to the conditions and trying to hold a full size Panasonic camcorder, but I hope it conveys the noise and excitement of the climb.
