Temple Meads is frequently used for charters, steam excursions, and so on, so its not uncommon to see steam-era coaching stock there. This train appears to be either ex-Great Western or BR Mk.I, but with Western Region livery. In truth, BR Mk.I stock was based on the designs used on the private railways in 1947, so its often hard to distinguish from genuine pre-1948 stock without a careful examination. One way or another, this is BR Western Region livery rather than GWR livery. |
