    I see that Sir Nigel is hauling this one all the way back to Paddington on Saturday evening, via High Wycombe. That will bring back a few memories for me of the late 80's and early 90's when No.7 was a frequent visitor to the Chiltern Line. Let's hope for a bit of evening sun on Aynho viaducts!

    Yes, the plan to run back to Paddington has been in place since 60007 took on the trip although Uksteam wasn't showing that initially. Hopefully we'll have a good day.

    I'm now working Saturday but with a bit of luck I'm hoping to make it to Birmingham Intl for the run back.

    Made a great sight and sound pulling away from the water stop at Beaconsfield a couple of minute early. Forgot how impressive the A4's are - must try and get a main line run out behind one again soon.

    Surprised there is a car park attendant on site at 2130 on a Saturday! Luckily he didn't seem to mind us pulling up to watch the A4

    The delay on the outward was apparently due to someone running away from the police and deciding jumping off the bridge was easiest way to escape. Once they had been scraped up and arrested, trains were allowed to pass again.

    Back into Paddington 8 1/2 early this evening, a very enjoyable run back from Chester.

    Just got back from a great day with 60007. Thank you to steam dreams who changed the original plan to turn the whole train at Chester so everbody good a fair share of the wonderful A4 sound track.

    I believe the reason for delay was a little more complicated than Trespass but for sure it was nothing to do with our train.

    Superb climb out of Crew this evening, just wonderful.

    I also left the train a Beaconsfield and indeed a wonderful sight and sound.

    Thanks to all.

    acw71000, out of interest, what camcorder are you using? Your recent uploads are some of the best qualilty videos I have ever seen on Youtube, even on a 19" PC monitor. I can't imagine what the originals are like on a large HD tv.
