    Nice to see MRB getting back to grips with obtaining visiting engines for diesel events.....hopefully next time something a bit more imaginetive than 37248 can attend however beggars can't be choosers!

    Well done chaps, will probably be down for this one.

    Thanks for the updates / info Paul =D>

    Interesting to see the timetable "operating in reverse" this time!

    Trains non stop from Swanwick to Hammersmith rather than the usual other way round.

    Loco changes at Hammersmith, again, nice change to mix things up a bit.

    Will be down one day \:D/

    Cheers
