    Fatality between Southampton and Eastleigh. Less than ideal.

    Good to see that the diesel was only giving a minimum shove, rather than pushing like mad. <BJ>

    Absolutely. It was the same when we travelled 2 weeks ago. Mayflower sounded lovely yesterday

    Better than those stuck on 1W81 1935 Waterloo Weymouth, 4 late Winchester 198 late departing Parkway.
    Thoughts with all those involved in clearing up and having to make that distressing visit or phone call.

    Neil :(

    Hope you have a grand day. Please could you say if there there is a Pullman in the rake? And if so which end?

    I’m at the front but walking past I don’t believe there was a Pullman. Rear coach is a Mk2 FO AC, rest I’m pretty sure is Mk 1 FO.

    Excellent. Thankyou. That MK2 FO must have been swapped for the Statesman Pullman that was in the train on Saturday.

    We should likely have seen you before then I think. Just helps plan locations to try hide any rogue Choc/Cream coaches!
