Well, finishing work in the midst of rush hour and trying to get from Brum city centre to Daw Mill within an hour was always going to raise my blood pressure and test my patience but given the gorgeous evening light, I had to give it a go. So, after sitting in many traffic jams, and moaning to nobody in particular about the phasing of traffic lights being set up to cause as much chaos as possible, I finally pitched up at Daw Mill around 17:50. The 56s had passed Rugby at 17:25 so I walked up the field praying they'd been bunged in Brinklow loop.
Soon enough, 66166 turned up on red Petroplus tanks : http://www.ferret.fotopic.net/p60875648.html
And, after a 170 had passed not far behind the shed, I could hear the sound of a 56 in the distance! http://www.ferret.fotopic.net/p60875650.html
All that moaning about conspiracies to annoy Ferret for nothing!!!!
