BR Standard Class 4 2-6-0 No. 76009 (front) and SR Bulleid ‘Battle of Britain’ 4-6-2 No 34067 Tangmere at Bishops Lydeard on the West Somerset Railway for the Spring Steam Gala. Tangmere hauled a special charter from London Paddington, and stopped at Bishops Lydeard where 76009 (really 76079) was attached forming a double-headed train to Minehead.

Tangmere, taking on water in this photograph, hauled a special charter from London Paddington, and stopped at Bishops Lydeard where 76009 was attached forming a double-headed train to Minehead. I presume that 1O95 is the headcode of the service.

BR Standard Class 4 2-6-0 No. 76009 (really 76079) and SR Bulleid ‘Battle of Britain’ 4-6-2 No 34067 Tangmere at platform 1 of Bishops Lydeard station on the West Somerset Railway during the Spring Steam Gala. After waiting in the station for the southbound service to vacate the single line to Crowcombe Heathfield, the locos will double-head the last leg of the charter service from London Paddington to Minehead that was conveyed by 34067 alone as far as the WSR.
Behind 34067 is a rake of 12 coaches, comprising a chocolate and cream mark I (I think) support coach, 1 mark II and 8 mark I maroon passenger coaches. I presume that at least one of the last three coaches is a support coach, but I don't know. At the very back of the consist is Fragonset-liveries Class 47 diesel loco 47007 Hermes, although this was only backup in incident on the mainline and was not providing any motive power.

The train at platform 1 has just arrived into the station hauled by BR Standard Class 9F 2-10-0 No 92203 Black Prince (not visiable in this photograph), disgorging a larger number of passengers than the builders of this village station on a country branchline could ever have expected to see on its platforms.
