    Brilliant and a top effort for getting up early on a rather chilly looking day!

    And here it is. Covering 4 tours mean I don't know which thread to stick it in, but as 5043 was the star of the show IMHO, (Britannia ran it close mind) I'll stick it in here.




    The only one not ripping up the track was '09, and that only because it had been storming along and caught up to the service train ahead on the fast.....

    A fine video and a great achievement Jeff, on covering all these tours on one day. What was your mileage at the end ?

    I could have got Tangmere and Britannia on saturday by only walking 1 mile. (1/4 mile each way for each pass)
