    Thanks guys for running 45379 for an extra weekend, I hope the revenue made it worthwhile for you, had a pleasant enough round trip to Shenton before grabbing a lineside phot before heading home, I like what you've done with the Griddle/Bar Coach, very smart internally.

    I've added 3 pics from the Sunday here: Battlefield Line & 45379 - a set on Flickr , not my most extensive gallery, but there's a limit to what you can do with one train and poor weather.
