    9:32 was filmed on 27th April 1963, the T9 filmed at Wadebridge is "The North Cornishman", then the brake van special was "The Camel Valleyman", both organised by the PRC / RCTS. The T9 ran from Exeter to Wadebridge and Padstow and return, but during the break at Wadebridge a brake van special ran from Wadebridge to Wenford Bridge using Pannier 1369.

    Superb video, driver of the 2 car DMU seemed so laid back 👍

    Excellent footage. Photos, let alone film, of Trencreek Jn (Newquay) and its triangle are rare as hen's teeth.

    29:53 is Chacewater, the Pannier running around the Newquay train, then a Warship heading through Chacewater towards Truro

    I have a dream that some day AI will be able to miraculously restore such films to something approaching pristine condition.

      If I could get my hands on the original cine film it would help, but alas I can't find it.

    Somewhat surprised bythe apparent Merchant Navy class at about seventeen & a half minutes in.
