“No steam trains for some time then there are two through Bath.

Saturday 23rd 45596 passes through Bath at 14.59 on its way from London via Swindon to Bristol from where on Sunday it is to haul an excursion to Cornwall ,

Wednesday 27th 34046 Braunton brings an excursion to Bath at 1400 returns 16.55.  Bradford on Avon 1343 and 1711.  

Sixty years ago Braunton was a regular loco at Bath Green Park with trains to and from Bournemouth.”
