    And there is a whisper that the Bristol and York (SD) trips are long trains that will require a diesel. So this may be a rare opportunity to see the B1 perform on her own.

    Yes Ray Churchill said he is not expecting a diesel with the train, and hopes he doesn't get one!

    Given the weather forecast for tomorrow afternoon, I don't think it will matter much unless you have a waterproof camera, which I don't... :-(

    Forgive my ignorance, but can anyone tell me if the Mayflower will be routed on the Great Western mainline track out of Paddington and into Slough, -- or will she run the local slow line, so as not to impede the 1st Great Western mainline regular services?

    Real-time Trains (RTT) indicates the lines it should take: http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/U55229/2015/03/01/advanced
    There's a lot of Main-line running, but on the Relief through Slough - Maidenhead

    Looks like RTT is having trouble. Can't see any updates for anything on the GWML since about 0840. Any idea whether Mayflower's on time?

    A sight that will soon change forever. The catenary supports are not far away now.

    Blimey, didn't realise that they had demolished it. I used to use this station a lot until we moved.
    Like the video.
