Really enjoyed that read, glad you're back on the scene and I'm definitely looking forward to more :) very engaging stuff!

D stock always reminds me of the New York subway trains since their "American style" refit. If they were still in the plain grey livery, they could definitely pass for subway stock!

Great read Jay,

As to the 442's may not be very long as the new 387/2's are undergoing testing. But there is always the rumours that the 442's will be converted to coaching stock and stick a big noisy engine on the end of it...i can only hope:D

When we PM'd each other earlier and you said you got the 1600 back you never said you were up and about a 0515, no wonder you made your way back then. I was still curled up in bed until 0700.

Can't wait for your next report.

Welcome to the trip reporters! It was a brilliant read and sounds like a great day out. And, just to say, you are doing better on the 442s than me, not to mention the tube stuff!

Welcome to the trip reporter community. I also have had lethargic starts at early times that have caused me to have to replan days out, predominantly buses from where I live. Looking forward to more trip reports in the future

Welcome to the trip reporters' club! Also welcome back to the scene!

You sure had a very good day there, and I can't say I blame you for heading home at 1600 after being awake for so long!

Welcome aboard!

A good first read there, and by the sounds of it a very productive first day. Looking forward to reading more of your travels.

I'll add my welcome to the trip reporting club.
The more the merrier.

An enjoyable read, it's always nice to see 442s being roped in :)
