One final shot from Wednesday (and probably this year !)
I noticed from my photos that she didn't seem to be carrying much coal in the tender.

Lifted the safety valve on departure from Bath Spa and it stayed lifted for some time, rather masking the exhaust beat from the locomotive.
With a southerly wind, no opportunity for the 'Coal-fired loco exhaust scent' to make its way up the half mile or so from Bath Spa station into Lyncombe Vale as happened once before, finding me as I happened to be waiting in the autumn dusk on the old trackbed there, on the little viaduct just before Combe Down Tunnel - the scent causing an unexpected scalp-tingling, on account of being a once commonplace event there now so rare and so distant.
