    I was going to post a pic of her bang on time at Langley, but for some reason I've exceeded my quota for uploading!!!

    Quota? I didn't know we had quota's - could somebody please explain - Ralph, anybody :help:

    Anyway I've now joined the Flickr community!

    So here she is on the approach to Langley.

    As Dave mentioned, this is the actual quote from Alexa Stott. <BJ>

    >> ''Ok 16 down, 2 to go - Tornado, Bittern and the Great Marquess have all arrived today and are now safely tucked up in the Roundhouse for the night!''

    Bittern passed Melton Mowbray on time, Engine and 2 Support Coaches. I think this may be the first A4 to pass through Melton, I cannot recall another occasion. Here is one of my 3 photo's, I have attempted to rescue from poor lighting conditions
