    Possibly an RTT glitch, but appears to an hour late leaving Hellifield?

    Here's my video of 34028 Eddystone hauling Days 1 & 2 of The Great Britain XVIII to Penzance over the South Devon Banks. I filmed Eddystone at Whiteball and Rattery Banks on Day 1. Day 2 I filmed at The Royal Albert Bridge, Dainton Bank, Pugham Farm and Fordgate. I hope you enjoy it.

    I wondered why Tangmere would get a red signal just beyond Horton rather than the start of the single line section across Ribblehead Viaduct. The preceding GBRF train (of poor quality) graffiti wagons was on the viaduct before I switched back to the Horton webcam.
