    She was coasting through St Neots earlier, having caught the stopper ahead up... But still looking magnificent

    She was cleaned up at the NVR the other weekend, but has obviously done a fair few miles since then

    Moody lighting on that. I was toying with the idea of doing the viaduct shot but had some work to do so opted for the quick dash to Arlesey and back.

    Anyone know what the "The Bon Accord" headboard is about?

    The Bon Accord was a named train that ran on the Glasgow - Aberdeen route. No.9 must have hauled it many times and I suspect John Cameron may be behind the decision to carry the headboard today.

    Haven't a clue! To be fair, the Up Starter was at Red but I am surprised there was no 'Stand back from the Platform Edge' announcements - the platform ends even have automatic ones!
