Buckfastleigh

One of the first escapees from Barry scrapyard, ex-GWR 4575 class 2-6-2T No. 4588, was restored to running order by BREL at Swindon Works as early as 1971. The following year it was photographed on the Dart Valley Railway about half a mile outside Buckfastleigh with a train from Totnes Riverside (now Totnes Littlehempston on the South Devon Railway).
