Quite a few new images loaded up to my website but after following Google Earth all the way from Penzance to Exeter does anyone have a location idea for these 2 images....I've not managed to pick them up.

50002 approaching a station.....

The other location will probably more difficult as its out in the sticks

50012 with a short rake of Mk2's heavy on the first class!

As they came with 3 other images from Devon & Cornwall I am assuming they are the same area.

 

 

Many thanks

I would agree about the second one being Cornwall, somewhere just west of St Austel would be my guess as you can see what appears to be china clay spoil tips behind.

Second photo. On the descent from Polperro to Buckshead tunnel east of Truro , there is a photo on page 110  in John Vaughan's Illustrated History of the Cornish Main Line taken from same view point.
