Summer Saturday holiday crowds arriving at Barnstaple in 1980 off the 13.25 from London Paddington. Most are heading for bus connections to Ilfracombe waiting outside the station. It all seems too much for Traffic Supervisor Owen Gregory, seen leaping from the platform! (He is in fact on his way to tell the crew to take a break after running round.)
