The Great Britain Monday 6th

Just thought I bring this to the top to save another thread being started. It's probably too early for any news yet.
Hope to see it at Theale.

 

10 early through Ascot - but behind a Reading train so going slowly.

Photo later.

 

Going well through Theale 13:57, 5 mins BEFORE it was due through Reading (14:02). Lots of clag. Glad I gave myself a bit of time especially after 5029 Saturday. As at Ascot, still running 10-15 mins early.

 

That would explain why I didn't see it if it was running early !
Waited till 2.30pm then drove down the A329M to collect something from my son at work at Winnersh Triangle expecting to see it !
Not my week this week as I was at Totnes yesterday & we all know what happen at Newton Abbot, Mind you seeing D1015 with 70013 was different.

 

Here's my photo from Hungerford Common this afternoon, really going well.

Arrived in Bristol more less on time the station was quite busy with 1015 on the middle road and a class 47 waiting to take the stock out.

 

nice picy, good to see you got the rods down as well =D>

 

Arrived about 5 early at Reading for a crew change.
