Seen here at Hollicombe with the beach and cove to the right and the now removed siding that served the old (out of shot and long demolished) gasworks to the left the site of which became a park.
Incidentally, part of the train is in Paignton while the other, from about the fourth coach backwards, is in Torquay. The tail of the train is in the deep cutting that, until 1910, was Breakneck Tunnel. Braunton is just about at the spot where a broad gauge train comprising of locomotive 'Meteor' and three carriages derailed in 1866.
