    Don't know why but this is already 20 late at Hounslow and has been losing time gradually since leaving Victoria.

    Afternoon All,

    I went to Fleet to see it this morning but was thwarted by a 12 car London bound EMU standing in the up platform! 12 cars! I ask you! Whenever we go to London they put on four cars and it's full to standing. But today, when a four car unit would have been quite adequate and well down the platform out of my way, they put on 12 cars! Where's the justice in that?!

    Anyway, for what it's worth, I did manage one going-away shot from behind the Desiro :

    There is also a short bit of video on YouTube :



    Oh well ! Better luck next time.

    Evening All

    shortly after arrival a heavy rainstorm blew in you can see the rain in the photos of Braunton being pulled out of Weymouth on its way to Yeovil

    After weeks of lovely sunshine when something good worth videoing comes close to home we get rain and cloud...

    Went out for it anyway and got the 47 at Thornford and Braunton at Bedmill Farm No 1 Crossing near Sherborne..

    No idea why but for some reason I completely forgot this one was running yesterday (even though it was local) so thanks everyone for the photos.

    I, too, was at Farnborough Main for the return working last night and have put some pictures on Flickr. This is the first one in the Photostream :

    There is also a video on YouTube :



    Hope that they are of interest.
