To my left or my right? Haha! Either way, great to meet you! It was a really good atmosphere today, I think people just delighted to see this train run. I hope your footage appears on here!

Good to speak to you at Cockwood Harbour this evening (I was stood next to you). I'm glad that your shots were worth the long drive from Manchester. Thankfully, my video is also very pleasing. [BJ]

Two of mine from today's tour. West bound approaching Teignmouth in bright light and east bound in beautiful evening light at Cockwood Harbour with the sun mercifully above a huge cloud. A fantastic sight in Devon today. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
