monday the 31st of may i went to york and the national railway museum to see recently restored 4472 in wartime black livery. as soon as i got to york i was graced by a class 47 from colas rail so copped it and then scooted to the NRM where i was 2nd in after opening. during this time i vegged round the flying scotsman and looked at all the other exhibits. i also got a small steam ride behind a pecket 0-4-0 called teddy after it's owner, in the over flow car park near the museum looking towards the works i also saw the NRM's class 37 and 47 (bonus). after lunch i popped back to the mainline station to bash a grand central, this turned out to be a HST much to my pleasure. i went to northallerton for a bit, after my previous experience with this terrible location i didn't want to stay long so get the next TPE back to york where i went back to the museum for a bit. when 4 o'clock ticked i was off again, this time on another HST in the shape of VP185s owned by east coast (formerly EMT) with new east coast brandings back to peterborough. another brilliant day and i can't wait to see 4472 again
