70810 Dawlish 26th November 2020

            Could this be the last Moorswater cements ? Rumours are flying about that it is running until 10th December but as always with freight they 'run as required' and this weekly Thursday only freight is also rumoured to have run its last. There is so little freight in the south west it will be a bitter blow to lose this train. The Tarmac plant at Moorswater is supposed to be closing too meaning the likely end of freight traffic on the Looe branch. 70810 heads past Rockstone Flats with the 6C36 07.17 Moorswater - Aberthaw cements at 11.13. At 09.30 the sea and Teign Estuary were in full sun with blue skies but shortly afterwards a layer of flat clouds anchored over the water considerably dulling the coast while inland remained sunny. I was going to plump for a shot from Shaldon Bridge but with the light not brilliant I opted for here with the Wavewalker as a backdrop. At 10.45 the sun decided to burst out but it was too late to head to my first choice so this not exactly perfect with the position of the sun. 

**LATEST RUMOUR ** is that the 3rd December is cancelled and that 10th December will be the last.
