free2grice liked 5944's post in the thread Great Britain XVIII: 18/4 -25/4/26.
It shows 32 minutes from St Budeaux Junction to Plymouth, rather than the usual 6.

7714 has had its old grate completely removed, a new grate fully rebuilt, and is back in steam. It will re-enter traffic this afternoon. A superb effort by ESMP and the Bridgnorth staff.

On the return from Penzance to Taunton, RTT (at present) is giving just a 2 minute stop at Plymouth. It gives the impression that the tour will run from Penzance to Taunton without a water stop. 140+ miles? Very strange. <BJ>

That’s not the case, Bill Monteith confirmed yesterday we are steam hauled all the way. The times for the trip to St Blazey for turning are now on RTT.
