    Nothing new there then. No doubt today's trip has been helped a bit by the reduced traffic density on SWT who have managed to maintain an on time service down our way throughout the snow. It can be done.

    Nice one, Horace!

    Certainly a few brave souls out today- and I thought I was mad!

    If you lot want snow, I'll give you snow, you could hardly see her on the approach Lol!!

    Same location as Horace, in fact we were stood next to each other

    Horace got the shot I was looking for, but I tried to be clever, the damn autofocus didn't want to play ball, I know I should have used manual BUT my fingers were red raw and refused to work...............

    So this is what I ended up with

    Yes. Nice punchline at the end of their lead report, along the lines of, "Perhaps this was the best way to travel today..."
