    Just saw the videos on You Tube on 60163 at Acton Bridge this morning. She looked stunning, but was about 12 mins late, which gave myself & my mate Jim time to drive up to as far as Preston where we saw it again at Barton, and was roughly 20-25 mins late at that time.

    Running ahead of time at Acton Bridge but for some unknown reason put into the loop.... No idea why as nothing went through in the following 5 minutes so had she been allowed to continue would have been at Winsford to take the slow before being caught.:confused1:
    Needless to say a poor video resulted.

    That loop business happened to me once at Thirsk it's a real pain in the ****, it's another reason I avoid stations.

    It's a rare occurrance there, only happened to me once before and that was several years back. Anyway without the lights the shot would be nothing, I once tried walking across a field for an evening shot, OK on the way as it was still light but a delay and it was dark on the way back, too many holes and piles of cow :tape2: .
