Looks like we did the same thing today :razz:

a very nice day for it to.

You didnt go Eurostar spotting afterwards?.

 

[jonb]

Thanks Scott - Well we did have a drive around Rainham & Dagenham (Never again!!!) and could'nt find the Eurostar overbridge - Any ideas whereabouts it is (Off the A13?)

 

[scott b]

Yup theres one at Rainham and think theres one at Dagenham dock at the stations

Some nice shots there

Eurostar spotting's good along the A2 especially the Medway bridge but you cant really take pictures from a car

Nice shots there, particularly of the pair leaving Thameshaven. I'm glad I didn't get in your shot at South Tottenham - I was supposed to go to Walthamstow Marsh/Lea Valley Park but there were no trains from Forest Hill towards London so I had to bus it to Victoria and run from Seven Sisters instead

Ahh wondered who that was wondering on the platform at the last minute No problems for me I figured you might have tried the hop from SS to South T. Was more packed than I thought it would be to say the least!

Cheers,

Nice shots there Jon!

I was up at Seven Sisters with RichA, we tried White Heart Lane as well but decided that SS would be a better shot, we decided not to go to S.Tottenham because then we wouldn't of made Pudding Mill Lane.

 

[RJ]

Umm nope - it probably would have been quicker to go from South Tottenham and via Leyton - you would have made it with 15 minutes to spare.

I do hope you had the relevant qualifications to be trackside jonb...
