Hi Downsman

The Silver Bullets used to leave at 08.40 from Burngullow on a Monday and Thursday if i remember right it used to run via Hereford arrive at Irvine 19.00 unloaded then run back empty to Bungullow for the next trip.
When i was at St Blazey there was talk of doing it with two drivers one from Burngullow to Hereford the second driver to Irvine but it never happened, we used to work it to Bristol and work the empty's back at 03.00 from Bristol to Burngullow a lovely train to work and when they were new and bright silver it was a very impressive train to see with two 37s up front.

Cheers
ccmmick.
