828 (52051, 59386 & 51936) passes Burngullow on 26 January 1991 with the 07:52 Penzance to Plymouth service. The line on the right is the freight only branch to Drinnick Mill and Parkandillack. Just three weeks after this picture was taken, this unit was destroyed after catching fire while travelling down Rattery Bank. The fire was so severe that the leading vehicle (52051) was completely incinerated above floor level. In view of the fact that most photographers ignored DMUs around this time, this is presumably one of the very last pictures taken of this unit. |
