    Heavy showers at a busy Clapham Junction plus a bit of a gust across the lines. Bright sunshine now, of course!

    And one more. £395 a head for today's five course lunch with champagne and half a bottle of wine. Probably a bit more refined than whoever ate the orange ;-)

    Thanks mrKnowwun - praise indeed coming from someone with your "track" record. Surely others have photos or video of this excursion?

    I do! Here is my video from today's VSOE with 35028, which as ever looked and sounded the part. I captured 35028 at London Victoria and Clapham Jc, while on a short trip to London.

    I've said it before, the way that loco is turned is an absolute credit to the support crew, even Hyacinth Bucket would really struggle to find fault.............

    By now it's probably become a matter of principle that 28 is turned out like that although I suspect that there is also an expectation from VSOE Ltd that it is so. Strange therefore that the British Pullman publicity video on their site features........34067!
