    Yorkshire looks the place to be on Saturday with an A4, A1 & Britt all passing along the ECML at some point, i was originally going to do this trip until other commitments put a spanner in the works ](*,), have to make do with a bit of linesiding at Nuneaton i suppose.

    Anyone know what the load might be ?, would be interesting to see an A4 attack that flyover from a standing start.

    I guess the load will be circa 10. The mk2's are relatively light so I don't think it'll hold any fears for 60007. Remember it takes a similar load up the 1 in 49 on the NYMR day in day out.

    The load is either 8 or 9, not certain but 47 773 is on the rear so that will be equivalent to 11 or 12.

    I'll be up near Arley tunnel in Galley Common, but I think the light may have faded too far by 17.35.

    About 15 mins down west of Nuneaton, going up the bank very steady to Arley Tunnel. Had knocked the following Nuneaton Birmingham XC service (Edited 1 March - see below for reason from No.7).

    Almost dark, so apologies for the awful quality, even at ISO1600 ......
