6919 1956c Teignmouth

My records confirm that this certainly is the 7.00.a.m. from Swindon to Penzance , pictured here approaching Teignmouth station , with 6919 ," Tylney Hall' at its head. The engine will almost certainly work past Newton Abbot , picking up a pilot for the South Devon banks down to Plymouth where it will be replaced for the run down through Cornwall to Penzance , but Newton Abbot had the unfortunate habit of often taking'rare" engines off when they called there, hence the popularity of days spent at that location , particularly on Summer Saturdays.
