Hi all, Happy new year :) sorry it's late i've been having my usual stuff prolonging updates again. i know i need to get it sorted, i'll try.
anyway 2011 buisness... started off by popping down to the nene valley railway for my first cops of the year. 377 King Hakkon 7 and class 14 D9523 on the winter warmers, then there was a big moment of nothingness until 60015 appeared on 6Z84 ely - peak forest. 60015 paused at peterborough for a crew change and because it stopped in the station i asked for a quick visit to the nice cab. moving on to the 15th of January i decided to start off my rail miles for 2011 by doing an anglia rover. much to my surprise my mates david, chris, max (317666), hitchin trains & fred (nxea170202) were doing the rover too, so we eventually met up and i bashed the class 90s all day ending up with haulage on 90001, 90014, 90008, 90005, 90003 & 90036. to end the day (and after 5 and a half return journeys between norwich and ipswich i ended the day on 170202 and clocking up 678 miles and 78 chains. overall a fantastic day out and start to the year despite the shortage of video. photos can be seen on my fotop
