    Just a suggestion. Could the mods perhaps split these up by individual tours rather then letting one thread run and run to many pages. Same for likes of rtc tours. Good to review each tour individually.

    Blimey that’s some stonking running, just my luck that I’m behind the two 37s! My allegiance was clearly in the wrong place today!

    Sorry to have missed that today, only beaten 70 mins twice out of 18 runs where I have noted the times. Once with No 9 and once with Scots Guardsman. All the best with Ais Gill & Wilpshire.

    Not your lucky day today what with the Freightliner on the WCML and being rained on out of a mainly blue sky on the S&C. Great video as usual though.
