    Anyone know why the 5s were delayed at Hereford? Left 43 late and lost more time to Tram Inn.

    Yes, nice footage. Is she a bit off beat? I thought she sounded more like a Scot in that first clip, or is it just me?

    The Black '5's passed through Patchway on the outskirts of Bristol at just 18 mins late, hauling two Mk.2 coaches.

    Both engines looked and sounded very good. They'll now be tucked up for the night at SPM. <BJ>

    Off topic but it regularly occurs to me the Carnforth to Hellifield line has great potential as a quasi heritage line.
