    Well it's like this.......I knew it was going arse first from Shildon to Stockton and then pointy end first from Stockton to York.
    However the light was so good early on that I thought I'd have a play with a polariser (God knows we don't get many chances in this country!) and then get a shot later on pointy end first.
    Unfortunately they managed to get turned round an hour early so I missed it!

    I did see it passing over Yarm though in brilliant light as I wandered down the high street eating a sandwich! [​IMG]

    So the answer to your question is a resounding NO!

    Now I've finished laughing (sorry but it is funny..................) I'd call it "one of those days"! Lol!

    Could've been worse, you might have been bowled by one of those diseasel box thingy's, right at the wrong moment.............................................

    .........if only the cars weren't there?!! Not half as much of a problem as the houses. They really do spoil the view of the other 40 odd arches.
    (Well done Stuart)

    Another gem from you, Stuart. To me it has great atmosphere - 'old' and 'new' together', as it were. (and a 10 year old Berlingo as something in between!).

    Thanks for posting the links. I have to hope they get delayed on Thursday (the 6th) so I have a chance to see them after work........... Now if they were running 30 minutes later...........
    What is it they say, you can't please everyone? ;)

    I may or may not be able to see them Thursday, but no worries, three days linesiding at the Gala will put that right! :)

    I am coming to the Gala on Friday and was hoping to come down on Sunday as well but it looks like I can't make it Sunday now. Was hoping to see the two Bulleids together on the Big Railway as a bonus.

    They "should" be running tender first, as the info on RTT suggests this......

    RTT now says 'Braunton's' move has been cancelled, leaving just 'Clan Line' to head to Alton today (Thursday 6th March.).

    OK - thanks for that - I remain puzzled by the statement against the 34046 Southall to SL move on RTT.
