Clan Line final Pullman 27th June 2015

Clan Line leaves the heat haze of the Surrey Hills and arrives at Dorking West this afternoon





No comment about the support coach please....

 

Very nice indeed, many thanks. She looks superb as always. Even that clean! Maybe I should have come out today to see here, but very busy writing about Owls at present.

 

Here is my video from Worplesdon with 35028 working through the heat haze:


Bloody hell it was hot , which is why I decided to film from the shade of the trees at the end of the platform.

 

A little further down the line

 

Filmed at Chilworth:

 

I'm guessing you were the older of the two men set up with video next to the old signal box at the platform end when I turned up with camera?

 

Correct. The younger chap next to me was another well known Nat Pres photographer who will, no doubt, be posting his video later.

 

Not a certain Mr Ward? I should have introduced myself to you both.

 

Not Mr. Ward. I won't name him just in case he doesn't post, but he is very well known on the Forum. Perhaps we should all have name badges so we can identify each other. So often I get home and find I have been standing next to a fellow Nat Pres member.

 

So that would say "Western Explorer the Elder" then?

 

35028 made a brief appearance during ITV 4's coverage of Formula E as she was being brought into Victoria across Battersea Bridge when one of the helicopters was doing aerial shots around Battersea Park.

 

You are really making me feel like a geriatric.

 

During a break in the sunshine at Putney

 

My effort from yesterday.

About the only thing of interest there then. That FE battersea race is a complete and utter farce in every respect.

 

She was pretty much. I only ended up watching it because I couldn't find anything else to watch. Did have to rewind to make sure.

 

Who would that be, I wonder?
