    Literally just caught this at Winchmore Hill, I was planning on viewing it at Grange Park were I commute in from, but would of had to wait around for the next unit into London.

    Sorry about the quality as they are phone pictures, purely record the moment only. Having just stepped off she sounded her chime on the approach.

    I did try to post just as she went through, but my iphone doesn't accept cookies so I couldn't log on and update.

    Uniform rake of maroon, mainly mk2's, no diesel on the back. Think it was 12 on, going like the clappers roughly 2 down.

    Looked good passing Wymondley (between Stevenage and Hitchin) this morning, bang on time. Nice of the driver on my FCC service to announce it was approaching, I'd completely forgotten it was running!

    Same here. Planned to view it on the way to the dentists but they phoned early to cancel my appointment and thus it slipped from my mind completely. :(
