    Will be going to Bristol tomorrow after seeing 6201 (obviously, if you are around, please do say hello! Orange trainers and the gold/bronze coloured tripod give me away!), and am looking forward to seeing 60163 up close. As F2G has mentioned, the weather looks fairly good, although the sun is now only forecast for about 3pm. Let's hope it stays like that!

    Just passed Gospel Oak at 10:04 so a small delay. Didn't go out to catch it but heard the engine from my back room and saw the steam and smoke out of the window. Would have gone out but waiting for the postman to deliver a model Blue Pullman.

    Posted at 14:58 pm by Matt Ryder. ''The empty stock from the kettle tour has brake problems and is stuck outside Bristol East Depot blocking the line''.

    ''Just been shunted into the sidings, delays of around 30 minutes to passanger services stuck behind on the down main''.

    60163 flew past 6201 at Swindon at 18:02, probably hitting 75 - simply incredible!
