(3) John Clifford comments: This tour was first advertised as being 34067
'Tangmere' from London Waterloo to Exeter St Davids and 34046 'Braunton' from
Exeter St Davids to London Waterloo, with 34067 banking from Exeter St Davids to
Exeter Central. However 34046 is not yet ready for main line work so 30777 'Sir
Lamiel' was substituted. It was then found that 30777 is out of gauge and the
tour then became the one shown, as no other steam engine was available. Since
there are no facilities for turning an engine at Exeter, 34067 had to be dragged
backwards to Laverstock South Jn, so that there was steam haulage for at least
part of the return journey to London Waterloo.
