This British Rail Class 115 DMU (Diesel Multiple Unit) running on the West Somerset Railway stopping at the historic village of Dunster.
DMU 51880 was preserved by the West Somerset Railway in 1995 for use on off-peak services. The railway had previously run a variety of different DMU sets but wished to standardise their maintenance, so acquired five Class 115 power cars along with several trailer cars as a direct replacement for the earlier sets.
