29th June 2013
Following shortly behind The Mazey Day Cornishman on the 29th June 2013 was 'The Cornish Riviera Statesman', this premier dining charter was operated by Statesman Rail and hauled by two locomotives from West Coast Railways. Former South West stalwart Class 57/6 No.57601 lead the 1Z49 04:45 Derby - Penzance with Class 47/7 No.47760 tucked inside. With both locos being driven independently the pair are seen passing Beambridge on the climb to Whiteball Tunnel.
