ahh shame looks like i missed that one as went and did something else, shame will have to catch them all when they come back if anyone knows in advance what days all the locos might come back down

ahh thats a shame thanks for the updates

thanks, il try and photograph it :) cant tell if its left yet though as dosnt look to have updated? theyre really pulling out all the stops for this years gala, could be one of the best, shame i cant make it

very nice, shame i couldnt get a long shot of the 31 but it pulled into the platform

saw these on their way to swanage diesel gala earlier, very impressive as id not seen a 44/46 in person before 8-) they pulled into the lymington line platform at brockenhurst (which is quite unusual) to let an express past

nice one thanks for that ill try and photograph them https://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/service/gb-nr:R24941/2022-05-03/detailed

thanks, nothing on rtt yet but will keep an eye out

still cant find any info on when or how the other visiting locos are getting there as still nothing on rtt, saw the 50 and 33 on the mainline going there recently but no other locos unless theyre already there or are going by road?

nice little line up that, still no word on when the other visiting locos will be passing on the mainline, not on rtt anyway

by built i meant thos dmu's they had refurbished to mainline standard for use on the connection

what a shame that was, it was late meaning it clashed with another train coming in the other direction so i had to change location meaning the pics arnt that great unfortunately not sure what happened as it came out of eastleigh works a bit early, but someone said it missed its path so had to...

thanks for the update, just need to find out when the other diesels plan to arrive so i can photograph them as well :)

they dont want to but they where going to with the trains they had built :s talking of bus revenue that seems to be a large factor/opposition with the hythe railway re opening, will take away from the ferry and bus but we are going off topic.... back to beer if we could....:lol:
