    Whole event seemed to go well, with good timekeeping, at least until it all went a bit "Pete Tong" on the double header yesterday evening.
    I assume as per Saturday the plan was for the T3 to lead out of Swanage. 34028 was about 15 late in so I assume to save time the locos ended up chimney to chimney. I suspect at a temp of 2C the T3 crew may have found it a little cool on the return from Norden tender first. I got off at HX where I had left my car, 48 late but according to RTT the train lost another 5 minutes by Swanage.
    Still it was great to get steam in the dark and to get a chance to see Harmans Cross' version of Mar-a-Lago all lit up from the railway.
    A few images may appear when I get time.

    As it has been done before I did not bother with my £4.60 image (cost of two T's at the Swanage buffet price:))

    And how do you know that the people in the fields were freeloaders?
