Sun ! 24/7

Something we've had a lack of recently, and a full day of it too.

Shots today in the Southampton area, Serco at Millbrook, a special 6X38 Marchwood - Didcot MoD, and the 'Royal' VSOE.

Nice shots. These two are the best in my opinion:

Great shots!

66588 was on 4O51 Wentloog - Millbrook I believe. At least, it fitted the time at Micheldever for that working, plus the Wentloog workings often utilise the new 66s.

I thought it was that, but the load suggested it wasn't, as the Wentloog often has 'tanktainers' on it, which a working I saw later in the day at many of.

To be honest, we can never been 100% accurate with ID'ing workings, you say that 4O51 usually has a lot of tankers, well from my photo it looks fairly fresh air - perhaps the tankers weren't loaded?
