The White Rose, 26 June 2010

It was about 20 minutes late at Offord Crossing, going like the clappers despite being on the slow line with an FCC stopper not far in front : http://ronfisher.fotopic.net/p65610079.html

 

No genny car, I can assure you - that's one of our support coaches (a former NNX)! All the noise was by 6115.

We must have been stood practically next to one another... You wasn't the guy in the red car parked in front of me were you?

 

No, I parked the other side of the bridge. I was the one standing on my camera box for valuable extra height!

 

Yes, it was a nice "spirited, enthusiastic" run. I've posted elsewhere but I don't mind repeating it, yon Scot is a very fine machine and a tribute to the folks at Carnforth.

 

Hello Ron , meant to introduce myself but , as Guardsman was late I had to shoot off to take the wife to work . We were the couple standing on the other side of the foot crossing . Good to see the Scot , my first time .

Well you can see where I was standing! The first picture that I uploaded was done in a bit of a hurry and was a bit on the dark side. I have now re-worked it and made it lighter so note the new link. ( http://ronfisher.fotopic.net/p65610079.html ).

Ron.
