    Interesting - a Class 67 on the back. Must have been a DBS operation, presumably so that the air brake could be tested?

    I dont think your pocket sounds much like a brit though!? ;)

    Normally I wouldnt bother with it been at night but as I am on my way down to Devon anyway it would be daft to turn down the opportunity!

    At least when I get to Worle it wont be like the black hole of calcutta............
