Well done to everyone with their scores, oh I remember having all that free time to score away like a good 'un!

I wasn't expecting to be out for a while yet this month, if indeed I got out at all, on the trains but a rear tyre on the Blue Beauty that's too dangerous to ride on has meant it's parked up awaiting funds to get it replaced. Still, it meant I got the red pen out today so that's good!

3 more 196/0s to go, I can't see it being much longer until I get them. Tour de France is keeping me busy every day though, so they might have to wait until at least next Wednesday!

Whilst on a Sports tour to Toronto I managed to sneak in

Saturday 1 July (Canada Day)
GO 681 Toronto to Niagara Falls for $10 weekend day fare (sadly the return was dud GO 680 had the last time I went to Toronto four years ago).

Tuesday 4 July
GO 649 Toronto to Old Elm (was known as Lincolnville) on the Stouffville line.

Wednesday 5 July
VIA 920 Toronto to Montreal
VIA 6406 Toronto to Brockville (Ottawa service attached to Montreal train)
EXO 1343 Montreal to Sauve
VIA 6401 Montreal to Toronto

Not bad for a non railway holiday.

Nice one. I think we’ve all had sneaky days on holidays like this. It makes it worthwhile.

From my Explore South Wales Trip:

7/7:
153906 (as a 153/9, last of the renumbered 153/9s) [Carmarthen - Llanelli]

8/7:
158748 (as a 2 coach 158, had countless times when it was part of 158/9s) [Cardiff - Newport]
170619 (as a 170/6) [Newport - Gloucester]

9/7:
231002 (Llanbradach - Grangetown)
231009 (Cardiff Central - Llanbradach)

10/7:
197016 (Cardiff Central - Newport)
197019 (Shrewsbury - Cardiff Central)
231001 (Cardiff Central - Llanbradach)
231004 (Llanbradach - Grangetown)
231007 (Grangetown - Ystrad Mynach)
231008 (Ystrad Mynach - Dingle Road)

Plus:
170618 (As a 170/6) [Chepstow - Newport]
170623 (As a 170/6) [Newport - Chepstow]

Which clears the reformed XC 170s, quite lucky both were on Cardiff services and gave a reasonable +35 minute connection at Chepstow. At least whenever I'm next in Birmingham, I won't need to keep my eyes peeled. Could have grabbed another 197 on Saturday but the train I was in was held outside Cardiff for 5 minutes meaning the connection was missed. Ah, well. I was impressed with the 231s.

12/7:
158768 (Southampton Central - Salisbury)
158771 (Salisbury - Southampton Central)

Both were needed as 2 coach units, already had plenty of times when they were part of a 158/9 hybrid. Clears the GWR 158s [until they decide to disband the remaining 158/9s back to the original 158s], when I saw that both were out on Cardiff - Portsmouth services and passed at Southampton with a +7 [or a safer +30 at Romsey] I felt it was too good of a chance to grab both for the price of one on a post work spin.

Nicely done Monseiur Kite :D

12/07/2023

196009 (Hereford-Malvern Link, and currently Malvern Link-Hereford)

Just 2 more 196/0s left to get, hopefully they will soon be mine! Frustratingly, I have a few days off next week but they almost all fall on strike days!

Finally cleared the 3-car 165s :D 6 more 165s to go, hopefully they will get done before the end of the year!

Oh, and I've finally done Bicester Village's shopping centre. A weird little curiosity, I'd been hoping to get some new trainers while there but the only thing I bought in there was a coffee :lol: Next time I do Bicester it'll be for an explore of the area on foot/cycle!
