Notes :
(1) This tour should have gone to Penzance but a farce in Cornwall prevented it and the Falmouth branch was traversed in way of compensation. The tour was re-run on 31/08/86. Ian Monkton comments : The ‘farce’ mentioned at Truro was the derailment of 37196 which necessitated single line working. The tour was due to go to Penzance, but 37207 plus the stock (and passengers!) were sent back to Plymouth for a 2hr 25min wait while the 20’s did go to Penzance for refuelling.
(2) Train was booked to have run top-and-tail with 37196 to Falmouth but its derailment prevented this and the train therefore only ran to the loop at Falmouth where 37207 ran round.
