67006 'Royal Sovereign'  one of the two dedicated class 67s for Royal Train duties passes Hollicombe near Paignton at the head of 2U20 1247 Paignton - Cardiff Central. The more regular 67016 and 017 have been replaced as they required exams. Both Royal locos 006 and 005 have been drafted in to replace them

67005 on the rear of 2U20 1247 Paignton - Cardiff Central. A strong easterly wind was blowing causing it to be bitterly cold. 67005 'Queens Messenger' is not a stranger to the set, as it appeared during Summer 2009
