    I'm cycling to a bridge 5 minutes away but not much effort for today due to the weather and a backlog of work.

    It looks like Vintage trains is getting off to a great start this year. Last year there were 6 carriages, this year 7 carriages.

    I had hoped to nip into Tyseley for a few shots of the preps but ran out of time. I simply went to Small Heath and captured a shot as 4965 came through heading towards Bordesley Junction.

    I noted Alastair Meanley, presumably firing, on the footplate with his father, Bob Meanley, leaning out of the drivers side taking photos. I didn't spot who was driving though. Can anybody advise?

    (edit - I don't understand why my link has picked up all this text. It appears to work though!)

    Clive, The Driver was Jim Clarke. I think all involved would agree what a fine job he did.

    We sold every dining seat we could accommodate. A very good start to the year.

    Look for more dining trains later on in the year!
