    Was anyone else out for this? The weather was pretty good this afternoon so I was hoping to see a video of two. (sorry, I only take stills and film at that, so no pictures from me for a while, I'm afraid)

    No Diesel on the back either!

    I've said this of Clan Line and the same applies to Tornado - it's a pretty heavy train but they make it look so effortless. Only one more run with 60163 (Friday 31st March) before 35028 returns - assuming all goes to schedule.

    I am a dope. Didn't realise it was running yesterday. Only saying to my brother that there is a dearth of steam so far down south in 2017. Would loved to see it at Egham or Woking. Oh well. Always the next time I guess. My weekend wasn't steamless as I had 7911 Lady Margaret Hall on a Bristol to Paddington 1A78 and 7805 Broome Manor on a Reading to Bristol goods. In my dreams? No. On my big model railway!!
