I can't actually believe how big a f*ckup he made, I don't want to mention it on a public forum, it's too epic :lol:

We have ways of making you talk...<D

Got images of someone turning up at some random spot in Wales and finding they're 30 miles away and missing it completely.

I've seen Wick shown on an ex-CT ATW 158 at Chester once, that looked a trifle odd! Photo is AWOL though.

Nice photos of the 97s there Dave!

Excellent stuff there Dave, nice to hear a 37 again.

Thought for half a second on its return you were turning the camera by that wagon for the number of it! :lol:

Keep it coming, I'm loving everything loco-hauled at the moment after re-kindling my love for loco haulage yesterday!

It didn't really go to Ironbridge! ;) It was shut down awaiting the Pwelly unit to come in and attach to it. Must of had a comical driver :p

Cheers Jon :)

Lalallalalala ho hum, I wonder who that was... it's 445 on the vultron display unit btw. I dumped that on 5 to go on the 15:31 bham inter after failing to get it on the 13:31 due to a points failure at seven bridge.
Well I needed a change from rolling about with "Balloch express" on the front.

I should have thought it was you :lol:

How about getting 'WAG Express' up on a 158 when they start running to Marylebone? Or a headboard with "The Other WAG Express" :lol:

It's an idea, if it ever happens. We will see, personally I hope it does as it will annoy the hell out of virgin with our sneaky way of getting around there ban on other TOC's running to London & calling at birmingham new street.
I see you got plenty of pics of the 97! You didn't go to Cosford as well did you? I came by there the other day with a 4 car 158 & the 97's were in the down loop with some photty guy sneaking through the undergrowth to get them, he seemed to dive for cover when I blew the tones at him.:D
By the way, after spending time with some of the serco lads in Abbey Foregate the other day I came up with a new name for the 97's. Well as 37's are called Tractors but yellow tractors are normally JCB's it makes sense to call them JCB's. Works with Serco anyway. :D
