I managed to catch a short clip of it heading northwards through Wivelsfield earlier today. The driver was clearly enjoying playing with the horn! :lol:

I managed to get a couple of short videos of it as it went through my local area - nothing special and only captured on my phone but if you are interested, they can be viewed here:- (Downward journey through Wivelsfield Station) (Heading back towards London, over the level crossing at Keymer...

A friend of mine took these of the interior of 345007. Not sure about the colour scheme myself.

Thanks for the reminder about that episode, I'd totally forgotten about it. I have many episodes of Hancock downloaded, fortunately including this one so I've just had another listen. Funny stuff! :lol:

Funnily enough, myself and a few friends joked about this earlier this week as a way to get around the Southern Strikes - our idea was to get out own little one carriage DMU and run it from Hassocks, Burgess Hill & Wivelsfield direct to London Bridge, departing around 7am and then returning...

Most of the actual fire sites have been by advance tickets for years now. I think Commercial Square is the only open one left now (not sure about Waterloo). Certainly Cliffe have been ticket only for ages, as were Southover when I last went there. The problem is on the streets for the many...

I've attended Lewes Bonfire Celebrations many times over the years. I only live a few miles away and have many friends who live in the town, so I can usually stay over which removes the travel issue for me. This idea that the celebrations are intended for "The people of Lewes and surrounding...

I was on the same train as you Infobleep (17:40 out of LBG?). I decided quite quickly that things weren't going anywhere so strolled over to the Snooty Fox for a couple of pints to let things calm down. Eventually I caught the 19:10 Brighton bound Thameslink service (departed at 19:29)...

Many thanks for the numbers @37038 and thanks for the tip about access via the Car Park @D6975! (Cracking photo btw!) We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Yorkshire so hopefully I'll be back a bit sooner next time - if I do get back soon I'll be sure to take a stroll around the Car Park. Cheers!

Thanks E&W Lucas - if anyone else knows the identity of the 37, please shout! Cheers!

On holiday last week I visited the NRM in York - first visit for around 30 years! Anyway, there were a couple of diesel Loco's outside that I couldn't get close to, so I was wondering if anyone can identify them for me. I'm particularly interested to know which Deltic this is. Sorry about the...

Traveled out of Brighton on a packed 319 with Hi-de-hi actress Su Pollard. On the concourse at Brighton I also saw Australian Actor Ian Smith (probably best known as Harold Bishop from Neighbours - he was in panto in Brighton at the time). I also bumped into Neil Pearson of Drop The Dead...

Blimey, you're not wrong. Just been checking progress on RTT. 1B18 10:02 Brighton to London Bridge: Departed 2 mins late, omitted Balcombe, arrived 16 mins late. 1B21 11:12 London Bridge to Brighton: Departed 18 mins late, omitted Three Bridges, Haywards Heath and Burgess Hill and arrived...

Short video clip of it running through Wivelsfield this morning. https://youtu.be/2sVX2H4uMlo Apologies for the slightly shaky hand - I was getting very cold and wet at the time! :lol:

RTT shows that it arrived in Brighton OK and is set to depart on time. I'm just about to stroll round to Wivelsfield to watch it hurtle through. RTT Link: http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/G73343/2016/06/20/advanced
