    The weather forecast for Yeovil this weekend is now looking quite promising.
    The expected rainfall is now due on Monday. :D <BJ>

    I hope so, they deserve it! :)

    It may not be the biggest railway centre in the world BUT I like it!.................... if they were any more laid back, they'd fall over....... hard to believe they've been going 20 years!

    One thing no ones mentioned........ the transfer shed - it has an interesting array of artifacts! ;)

    Quite a crowd for the relatively rare stop at Chiswick station this morning. Right arrow from the first pic below takes you to the rest of the set:

    Looks like all the worst fears were well founded, at least in the videos on here. Crummy Crompton pushing all day. Even leaving Winchfield.
    Worse than ever in mr Knowwun's video.
    Don't say you weren't warned.
    Edit, interesting to see some of the remarks about this in the Diesels on Back thread.
