    Good to see the 67 which was on the rear at Gospel Oak came off, I presume at Acton Yard ready for the return trip.

    Here is my video from today, with 34067, 60163 and 35028 all put into one film. I filmed 34067 at Portchester, Funtley, Chandlers Ford and Hedge End, 60163 at Sonning Cutting and 35028 at Chertsey.

    The stop at Twyford yesterday was witnessed as always by plenty of onlookers lining the platforms. Tornado didn't appear on time but followed the turbo she should have been in front of, but in brilliant sunshine arrived looking superb and actually stopped well short of the platform end. I can only imagine how many of the thirteen coaches were left hanging off the end of the platform. A few minutes stop, plenty of activity and comings and goings on the footplate and then away to a noisy (yes noisy) start with a few wheel slips. Great stuff. Pete
