My last train journey was at around 1-2 ish yesterday on an astronomically windy Southend Pier. My first time on the pier railway and I was not disappointed.

Just over an hour ago, Batley to Huddersfield with a 3-car 158 to Dewsbury and a 185 onwards. Didn't note numbers as I tend not to these days unless there's something unusual. Now on the final leg of my journey, Yorkshire Tiger 723 on the 1725 Huddersfield to Clayton West (as far as Skelmanthorpe) 81 service which will definitely be my last of the year.

Schöne Silvester, everyone!

This was a definate bonus for me as had been caught up in the HML Disruption which had the line been open would have ment finishing the year on a 170, yuck!

For me, it was London Midland 0918 Bletchley to Milton Keynes Central on 17th December, after travelling on the 0834 Bedford to Bletchley. I went to see Star Wars: The Force Awakens at the Cineworld at the Xscape complex in MK :P

Turns out my last was 142037 on the 20:39 from Liverpool South Parkway to West Allerton. Bit of an anti climax after some enjoyable travelling over the year. Ha ha.

Last thing I drive should be a 150, then it's a ride home on a Voyager and then a few pints round a friends house, which we can manage to get to without needing public transport! ;)
