Love your videios, but totally agree on lack of variety. It's the same here in Victoria, Australia. It's all Vlocity 3 car units (also worked as 6 car units), but very few Locomotive Hauled Passenger services compared to years back. Rail Tours here are the same... the same consists, the same locomotives. Keep enjoying the life down there (I'd love to live in the UK) and take care.

To be honest Alex I don't blame you I quite agree with you there isn't the variety just isn't there anymore not just in the Southwest but across the whole network in the UK I mean I don't make KZbin Vlogs but I watch yourself and other vlogers I do hope you keep the uploads coming look forward to seeing your next one whenever that might be.

when i was going to dawlish i thought the variety is really good because what i get now is all 197s a couple of sprinters on heart of wales the 153s and the 800s but in devon its much better you get 221s 220s 800s 802s 158s 150s 159s and soon 175s so i think what you get is great because here is boring and they are scrapping the 150s here because TFW dont want to spent money like GWR want to. but with the steam seeing it once or twice is good enough it would get boring so im on your side about that
