    No reports of Diesel on any of the gen groups, and that's the thing most of them would froth about :)
    Sapperton should be fire risk free today, had light rain yesterday and it's dull and threatening to rain at present.

    A good tour so far with the 5 being very vocal throughout. Arrived 23 down into gloucester mainly due to a tad too ambitous times on the golden valley line.

    She was about 25 mins down at North Camp but going very well. The timing was a bit close with a unit for Reading coming in the other platform as she approached but luckily this went in far enough for us to get 44932 coming the other way. Another great performance from this "newcomer" down South.

    C'mon then, let's see the videos! Really enjoyed seeing her at Shalford and Ash, video posted above, but it's not the same as Shapperton!

    I was recording sound some way back from the line had to back off the recording levels she was making so much noise all was well no overload.

    One hell of an engine made mincemeat of Sapperton with 11 on.

    Cheers Dave
