    Through Berrylands a couple of minutes down around 21:02. Sounded great and no audible assistance from the 33. Travelling slightly slower than I expected it to be on green aspects, was it kept on the slow line to Hampton Court Junction?

    My footage from today, captured at Eastleigh and Test Lane. Anyone know if she's down for the remaining two?

    To clarify we ran slow line Basingstoke to Woking, where I left the train. It left at 2044 and my video clip clearly shows it crossing from up slow to up fast with the appropriate signal aspect showing. There was nothing for some time in front so maybe there was a tsr somewhere as it should only have taken about 14 minutes to Berrylands. not 18.
