    According to a railway gen board, 4588 (out of ticket small praire from the Paignton and Dartmouth Steam Raiwlay) was seen heading North on the M5 past Cullumpton today (Wednesday 16th September 2009). Does anyone have any info as to where it was going etc (obviosuly not going to run at a gala!).

    Yes I am an active volunteer
    But was it actually 4588 or 4566?

    The later due for return around now from the SDR to the SVR so it would most likely be taking that route.
