    Obviously everyone does what suits them, but if Bournemouth Hospital had not hit the 1 in 365 chance and booked my wife's visit for the day of the Yeovil trip I would have been out. OK they are Mk2's, but the colours are very 1967/68 railtours, so to me even if Mk2's something not seen whilst I have been back into railways in the late 80's

    Fingers crossed the A2 makes it through a test run today. Would be lovely to see it on an Xmas service or two.

    Blue Peter still at Preston, now over 30 minutes late, hope there's not a problem.
    Edit,
    On the move now,

    Meanwhile north of Crewe in equally dull conditions at Acton Bridge 60532 returns from Preston with the test run. I do like the short train for the test run.
