Blessed with good weather I popped down to record a further update... this one is going to be rather special
View attachment 73819
A few weeks back I received an e-mail from the customer relations manager at Spencer's. It was an invitation to visit the site and walk the new track. Naturally I jumped at the chance and the site visit was set for today.
I've had a really wonderful morning. I met with the project manager, project director and senior planning officer, and finally met up with the customer relations manager who had been so helpful over the past nine months, dealing with my request for information.
I've just returned home, still buzzing with excitement, and now have the fun of editing the video. The update will be delayed for a while though as I need to obtain approval from Spencer's as I was naturally privileged to some sensitive information (which I would love to share but can't as I agreed in writing to non-disclosure), and there are also contractual conditions as more than one company are on site.
But here's a screen shot of a Hull trains (quite fitting as that's where Spencer's are based) class 180 taken from a vantage point I never thought in a million years would happen.
I would like to thank Diane, Lisa and Bob for giving up a couple of hours of their valuable time and making this morning such an enjoyable event.
