@KT550 - were you one of the three blokes I was talking to at Harrow and Wealdstone while waiting for 730 206 + 730 236 on the 12.53 this afternoon? I recall one of them saying they were going after 701 002 afterwards...

@Peter Mugridge I did catch the 12:53 to EUS and recall the two spotters on the bench.
I did notice a gent wearing a grey jacket, maybe that was you?

I recall he/you let the previous service go (like me), so I had a hunch he/you might have been waiting for 206/236.

I did have a dark grey jacket on, yes, and a large shoulder bag worn on the right hand side. If you only told one bloke there that you were going after 701 002 afterwards, that would have been me; I explained about the Windsor / Reading diagrams now interworking most of the time.

It wasn't me; I went to Waterloo first.

Ah... interesting... so you were one of the three, but not the one I spoke to...

I did see someone get on the 9.04 Stockport - Stalybridge train there on April 25th.

Judging by his kit etc I have the feeling this was another rail enthusiast.

That was me!

That was me!

Small world! Thanks for letting me know

I don't think anyone can beat this...

While queuing for a restaurant in Gdansk, @33056 (and her +1) appeared behind us in the queue!

So instead of requesting a table for 3, we requested a table for 5

Even more incredibly, they were also planning to visit Hel tomorrow, so we'll again be seeing them on the train in the morning.

That’s insane

I think we might as well lock the thread after that one

Nah. This thread's only been going 12 years. Perhaps it'll be beaten by 2040

When arriving at Bedford around lunchtime I unexpectedly bumped into @MrJeeves and @Mike395 who were looking at some funny liveried train! Looked very much like LNER!

Ah, he gets around a lot! We were with @MrJeeves in Kalmar (Sweden) just two days ago (but it wasn't unexpected)

Love this. I’m in Bedford a fair bit, but have yet to bump into either.
