AUGUST 2009

1st August 2009 to 31st August 2009

Just added a pic here of the 73s on the Weymouth Seasider tour as they departed the terminus.
I'm down here for 5 days for a well deserved break. been a while since I've seen ED's on the southern region. Certainly brought back memories of days out to
Eastleigh , gravesend Hoo junction and so on in the BR days.
Nice to a good looking loco on the logs today. We was in a complete shower for 30 mins before 57007 came round the bend.
A minute earlier and this would of been full crud. In my opinion this location is very underated even though the 40mph gusts and heavy rain put me off from going to Docker.
The bend and angle of the loco as it negotiates the curve into the middle road at Lancaster is quite superb. I can see thursday and Fridays being a popular day round helsby when this runs.
I only did the one shot of the 37 deputisng for the unavailable T pot. Wasn't really gaining anything today vegetation all green as green.
Will defo be having a bash on the sunday though. 2 x 37s all day for a tenner. Bargain.
