The one who I was gutted about missing was Tim Dunn, who was spotted by family members. Fortunately I have met him before.

My son (and myself) were hoping to see Geoff Marshall or Jago Hazzard.

Jago Hazzard was on Tour B, as was Jen On the Move (and youtube video posted this morning)

Tim Dunn was on train A at Guildford and Geoff Marshall was following the trains at various points, seen at Waterloo and Dorking.
Not sure I know what Jago looks like

Time for another "Trainspotting Live" but this time "Celebrity Trainspotting Live"? (originally on TV 2016 with Hannah Fry, Peter Snow, Tim Dunn and Dick Strawbridge)

Yeah the dinosaur and the wolf were a bit weird, but well done to BLS and SWR for putting on a great send off to the 455’s.
Some real spirited running in places and some lovely bits of track to colour in;)
Shame to see them go as I remember them coming into service but times are a changin

Ime sure the Wolf was also on the Southern 455 Farewell would love to know the significance (if any) looked a great day !

Not sure what you’re implying here. You have quoted me as saying something I haven’t said

Although for us on here it was very simplistic please try and remember it wasn't really aimed at us, it was for the public at large to try and explain why we do what we do, and I've seen Tim Dunn on a 50 tour this year so I'm quite sure he knew the problems with it but I'm glad it existed

Jago was on Train B and was quite the nice fella except at Guildford when he stepped on my right foot at the Costa

Saw Luke Nicholson enough times during the day when passing Train A - can't say I like the chap very much

Was surprised that Marshall wasn't really seen, though I overheard people talking at one of the photostops that he wanted a freebie... Don't know if its true, but I wouldn't be entirely surprised.

Why would Marshall want to get on, he's constantly saying he isn't a crank so him being on a crank tour would make no sense :?: insert irony here

He will pop up on anything where he can make money from it, especially if it's a freebie
