    Must have been a very spirited run by Tornado or plenty of leeway in the timings as the train is only 15 minutes late arriving at Cardiff despite being 46 minutes late at Bath Spa.

    Put it this way, it was ever so slightly faster than our run through Peterborough behind said machine last August. Can't fault the crew and locomotive. Departure now put back to 17:00. Now enjoying Dydd Gwyl Dewi in Spoons.

    RTT shows only 1 minute gained on the schedule between Swindon and Chippenham.

    Apparently she was turned at Maindee Junction in Newport instead of turning on Cardiff triangle as planned. She's just returned back to Cardiff Canton.

    image.jpeg Made a fine sight leaving Swindon, once crossed over from plat 3 to Down Main, nicely opened and could be heard chattering away toward Royal Wootton Bassett. Meagre shot from IPhone if technology works -

    My humble offering from Rushey Platt. Nothing too special, what with the rather dull conditions. But, it was nice to film some mainline steam again.
