    Saw tour today at Maiden Newton, Weymouth Station and Lorton Lane (Upwey). Looked good and I've not seen a Western in full power since seeing Western Lady(?) on the NYMR decades ago when I volunteered up there. We combined watching the return run with the weekly shopping trip and even my wife was impressed!

    I'm no expert on Westerns as you can tell from the above so an observation - is it normal for the exhaust emissions to be unbalanced? Unless it was an optical illusion leading away from M Newton southbound the nearside exhaust plume was definitely the darker of the two and on the way back up Bincombe Bank same observation. However obviously as the engine hadn't turned round, simply reversed, the darker one was clearly the opposing exhaust on the way back.
