At the start of the day 7820 was waiting in Bishops Lydeard station with the Santa Special to Crowcombe Heathfield.  You can just see the crew were in the spirit of things with their headgear!

The Santa's carry a headboard and class A lamps as seen here on 7820 Dinmore Manor waiting for the off.

Auto trailer 178 and small prairie 5542 went to Norton Fitzwarren and then followed Dinmore up to Crowcombe Heathfield where they are seen side by side.

5542's crew for the day, not a very taxing job with just the one coach, they could enjoy watching everyone getting freezing cold taking photos from their comfortably warm footplate.

Later in the day she was again simmering in partial sun at Minehead.

Visiting small prairie, Pete Waterman's 5553 was spare at Minehead and was suitably decorated for the season.

A photo stop on the way back at Donniford Halt.
