15th October brought to an end the Monday to Fridays loco-hauled diagram from Cardiff to Paignton, though the Taunton to Cardiff turn still exists.

67019 lead the last 1247 Paignton to Cardiff service with 67003 at the rear.

A nice touch was the addition of special window stickers reading 'Torbay Express III Paignton & Torquay Class 67 loco-hauled farewell'
