07/09/12. What a day! It was action packed right from start to finish. We arrived at Alresford around 9:30 and boarded the first train to Alton, all stops, and the day just kicked off from there really. A mix of good weather, good food and some good old steam trains. Enjoy this hour long video. (It was originally 1hr 30mins but I cut it down to 1hr, we must've been onboard nearly every train and service running that day!

00:00 - 09:20 = Mogul 5322 & 34007 Wadebridge Alresford to Alton all stops. (Inc 925 & 850 passing at Alton loop)

09:20 - 12:40 = 34007 & 5322 movements at Alton, 5322 departing solo, 92212 arrival

12:40 - 20:20 = 92212 & 34007 Alton to Alresford all stops (Inc 31806 passing and Ropley rolling stock)

20:20 - 23:10 = 850 Departing, Alresford movements (Inc 45379 & 34007 on freight)

23:10 - 42:07 = 45379 Alresford to Alton with some loud noise (Inc close up shots, 5322 & 850 pass, 34007 at Alton)

42:07 - 53:48 = 31806 & 34007 Alton to Alresford all stops with more loud noise (Inc 34007 emergency brake)

53:48 - 54:09 = 31806 & 34007 leave us on a hill just outside Alresford!
