    It was 37706 and was on platform 4. Arrival was about 20-25 mins late.
    Very nice to see - can't have been many of these visiting Preston (the Spamcan not the 37...)

    Watching from the footbridge at Filton Abbey Wood this morning, she appeared to make a short stop, on the bank.

    Can anyone confirm this, please?

    I was wondering about the mix of rolling stock behind the GB II,& had noticed the LMS Club or something similar.

    On the way home, I noticed Western Champion rolling into Temple Meads with an auto ballaster machine, where was it going off to?

    Yes, she did. Not sure why, but there were people working on a cutting-side, clearing undergrowth, etc. Perhaps a tree fell a bit close to the line? The WCRC 47 following was held just by the old Ashley Down station for a few minutes.
