I was on the tour and having got the sleeper back to Plymouth I woke at Exeter not feeling well at all. Once at Plymouth, I managed to walk home and a couple of hours later I was sick. I’m feeling a lot better now but the thought of food is a no no. Worse thing is I’m now steering clear of my...

I was on that service. We were told about the bridge strike and we kept edging further forward until we could go no further. That’s when we got sent back to Exeter. Not fun with a two year old!

I've not posted on the forums for absolutely ages but felt I needed to post here. Great to read your reports once again. I've dipped in and out of the forums in the last few years and rarely post. Seems to have got more toxic in the last few years. My interest hasn't wained much but a little...

I use Untappd and whilst I have enjoyed a beer whilst waiting for a train in the past, most of my station checkins have been whilst on the train. I just checkin to the nearest station i've passed through when it comes to checking in.

Unless I have missed something not much West of Exeter is 100mph. Beyond Starcross unless I am wrong you're lucky to hit 60! And that includes the embankment in Plymouth! I've been on a train in the early 90s that was hammering down Hemerdon and took Tavistock Junction with some "Welly" as my...

ok. Thanks. I saw that. It’s an ECS move unfortunately. Didn’t know if it was coming out to play later.

Morning all! Unfortunately 320403 didn't play yesterday and 304 came out to play instead! Can anyone see if it's out today please? If it isn't too much bother 156476 and 156493 as well please. Can be in Glasgow area from anytime up till about 1700ish. I maybe coming from Edinburgh area so will...

Thanks. Much appreciated. Hopefully I can get to them.

Morning All! Can anyone see if 320403 and 318250 are out today please? In Glasgow area from approx 1030 later on. Thanks.

I’ve not been on here much in the past 18 months but really enjoyed this. Well done on your shack clearance in Scotland. I can only dream of that now, a six month year old has pretty much stalled most of my rail related activities!! If I do get out shacks are lower down on my agenda as I try to...

Fantastic. Many thanks!

Thanks. Do you know what was on the 9M08 off Leeds? In my mad rush to actually get it I got brain fade for the second time today!! Not helped but the fact they don’t put numbers as obvious is in the past!

Sorry one more request please. Can anyone tell me what worked the 1P19 0917 off Manchester Airport please.

Morning all. Can anyone let me know if 185102 is out at all today please. I’ll be in Manchester from about 0900. Edit. Found it.

16th June 66136 17th June 43484 - my last HST power :D

Thanks! Wouldn't change it for the world but I have missed some good galas by the looks of it. Luckily I pretty much cleared all ex BR stock (especially the stuff in danger of being extinct!) before my abrupt halt to bashing.

Firstly congrats on the retirement! Great reports as usual. Chiltern units are one of the few tocs that has anything I need from the BR era too. As Tech mentioned the lack of any ranger makes it a slight pain!

Great report! Glad I don't need anything in c2c land! I found it quite boring, even when I ventured further into it! Love the shot of the FL 90 at the blocks at The Cross!

Very productive couple of days. Good to see you enjoying yourself on the railways again! :D I saw my last 185 in the peak and the move I worked it out on coming back on turned out to be a farce! Not seen it since! It hid from me the last three attempts or should I say possible chances to get it!
