Working the gradient at Milborne Port, LMS Class 5MT 4-6-0 'Black 5' No. 45212 nears it's destination of Yeovil Junction working wrong line down the 'UP Main' between Templecombe and Yeovil at the head of the 'CATHEDRALS EXPRESS' on 8th March 2018. Originating from Horsham, West Sussex, the initial leg of the tour was diesel hauled as far as Willesden where the Black 5 took charge of the Somerset bound excursion, later in the day returning to Hanwell Bridge Loop to be replaced by diesel traction for the final return leg back to the East Sussex town of Horsham.
