Bodmin General looked very different back then, the car park now has full enclosed fencing all around up to the yard gates.

This pic shows the car park when it was very much exposed, a Class 08 #08444 standing idle beside the car park.

Hello and welcome to the railway travelling account of Steele Bull. :)

Will be posting all my steam railway photos and videos here from time to time, and logging my visits to each new railway that I visit over the next few months.
