Triumph Stags aren't the only ones that brake down (Torbay Express)

[Malcolm C]

Jenny and I went on the Torbay express yesterday http://www.past-timerail.co.uk/index.php/index.html fantastic day and can recommend it. We went fromBristol Temple Meads to Kingswear,via WSM Taunton,Exeter,Dawlish,Paignton etc,And return.That was the plan but the train broke downon the way home at Exeter.We had the choice on getting the 1st Diesel train out of Exeter most of the people did but it was packed full.We decide to stick it out to see if our traincould be fixed,but because of the danger to the engineers and the passengersthey decided to send a driver on the next train to Bristol to collect a diesel replacementtrain to tow our train back to Temple meads cost £7K.This would not have arrived back at Exeter until 2230 so we opted for the next train out.
