34028 eddystone on the turntable of the swanage railway dorset england uk


No 21C128 Eddystone was built at Brighton Works by the Southern Railway in April 1946 and went straight into traffic from Ramsgate where it took up regular duties on the Kent Coast services to Victoria and Cannon Street. (Bulleid adopted the French style of numbering for his pacifics). Following the nationalisation of the railways in 1948, Eddystone was renumbered 34028 and was re-allocated to Exmouth Junction. It soon appeared on that depot's top-link duties such as the Atlantic Coast Express and the Devon Belle which it worked as far as Salisbury.
