    Electrification from Padd to Bristol/Cardiff. Get the pictures and enjoy the scenes before it's too late.
    Each time I see a video of Tebay, Shap and Beattock I just see a mass of wires and posts. <BJ>

    Does anybody know if Braunton is moving Southall - Alton today under its own steam or is it being deisel hauled ? There seems to be conflicting details on UKSteam.
