Not usually one to frequent the Weymouth area, out of interest, does anyone know what rolling stock FGW (First Great Western) uses here?

Plus the 67s & mk 2s on the Saturday High Summer service.

I seem to recall reading somewhere that 153s don't get to Weymouth very often as they try to avoid sending lone 153s up the 1 in 50 climb at Evershot Bank. Of course Pacer's never get to Weymouth as they can't run over the juice rail!

it could be anything except a 143,if a 153 is down there it is normally coupled to something else.
