25 August. The train has arrived from Exeter and waits in Platform 1 for a pathway back to Exeter.

The 12.35 South West Trains departure leaves from Platform 2. However, the Radio Train will have to wait another 40 minutes for the next up train to reach Yeovil before it can run to Exeter. (The joys of single lines!)
