    Thanks Mikem.

    Going by the timings for 35028 going from Alton to Stewarts Lane last year it took about 3 hours to do the move. This means arrival at Alton around or after 21.15 but you never know!

    I hope someone can come up with some detailed timings.

    Lost the internet and phone line Friday evening due to a fault so couldn't update on here. I heard her clanking down the hill from Aldershot at 9.10pm. I knew I should have gone for a walk down to the end of the road at 9.00pm as I had guessed she would go past at around that time. Oh well.

    A colleague working near to the railway said that he saw a steam train going between Farnham and Aldershot earlier today. Are they turning Tornado round or is she going out for extra work before next weekend?
