    This time next year, we'll hopefully have 35018 tackling many of the Christmas trains. Much as I'm looking forward to this, like you, Al, I do appreciate the Riley Fives' winter sojourn down south and I also hope they will be back before too long.

    The Fives very strangely made short stops at Bletchley and Milton Keynes Central - both unscheduled. I was at Bletchley, and the fireman aboard 44871 had gone onto the fireman side's running plate to alter the mechanical lubricator, before departing. Not sure if the same had been done at MKC or not.

    A brief video of the Fives this afternoon passing Heamies Farm just north of Stafford. They were going ok at that point...



    Skip to 1:30 if you wish to avoid the padding out with some more modern stuff ;)

    Good effort Steve but seeing the OB on the front is a guaranteed way to spoil a shot, pleased I stayed in bed now
