    Excellent, I shall shamelessly steal that inspired pun and tweak the title of my video.

    That's not the best way, you want a small fee for every hit.

    Here is my video from yesterday's Cathedrals Express to Bristol, featuring 35028 Clan Line, as well as 34067 Tangmere, which was, for an unknown reason, working to Bristol. 34067 is seen passing Swindon at about 17:50-58 yesterday.

    Tangmere is due to return from Bristol this morning. Indeed, she should be setting out any moment now. Any idea why she went to Bristol for St Patrick's day? Was it a running-in or test run? A photo-call for some publicity?

    That's what my dad thought, are there not any other facilities nearer to Southall for that though?
