The train service on the former L&SW route between Salisbury and Exeter on Sundays was pretty poor back in the 1980s with the large sections of the route undergoing singling. One of the few timetabled Sunday trains is seen standing at Gillingham station destroying the peace and quiet of a small Dorset town n a summer's afternoon! 50011 'Centurian' is seen next to the 1957 signal box leading the 1V11 11.10 London Waterloo to Exeter St. David's.
