Presumably these are sights? This thread refers to haulages! (If no, I'd like to know when you got 08922 as I require it )
60081 would be quite "large" for 2012 as well...

Next additions will hopefully be a bumper crop from places that I have never been to before (not in the UK!)
Well, there isn't much that is easily attainable for me modern traction-wise in the UK at the moment.That's a fair few kettles you've been scratching in over the summer.
20189 was my embarassing red pen for the year! Not that I'm really arsed being more of a photographer than a basher, but still!
Ah yes, in September 1995 and complete with "MC" headcode !I remember when 20189 was rather 'large', it was MC Metals scrapyard shunter, and Bo'ness managed to get it for one of its galas.
The back half of September was expected to net me a few new locos - so far I've got 50% (ie 3 of the 6) of what I expected over the past 2 weekends. The 66/70 on Pathfinder last weekend went out of the window owing to the tour's cancellation, and the 04 failed to produce at the Churnet Valley (nice of the railway to inform passengers before it was booked to work, not! ), but I did manage trips behind 30120, 31806 and 34053 at the SVR.
My "red pen" has been active throughout the year - in fact at it's most active for many a year. My target at the beginning of the year was to make a serious attempt at knocking a hole in the 1,000 or so DMU/EMUs that I still needed to ride. Without boring others with lists of hits so far this year, I will give a general summary of where I am with DMUs - I still need about 430.
I have tried to concentrate on older DMUs and had a good deal of success with the 142s which are coming down nicely (one Arriva and 17 Northern ones left). A trip to Cardiff saw off all my required 143s so with only four fGW ones so a day out in Exeter beckons. 144s need a lot of work while the 150s are another success story with 22 left to get spread accross all companies that run them (at the beginning of the year there were well over 50 on the wants list). I have scored a good bunch of 153s but with still plenty on my wants list to keep me amused in years to come. 156s are similar with the book screaming Scotland! I have hit 24 158s but still need plenty of them -again a Scotland trip is needed. We are almost there with the 159s and 166s which were already in good shape prior to the start of the year. fGW 165s have been sorted for many a year so need to spend some time on Chiltern ones which should also help my 168 lists go down.
I have had a good go at Greater Anglia 170s this year and was already very strong on Cross Country ones but as ever SCOTLAND is the weakest link along with the London Midland ones. Southern 171s are an embarrassment (I live in the South East). 172s are too new to worry about at the moment. 175s are coming down slowly - I seem to get another one every time I go near their operating territory. 180s need some attention, particularly Grand Central ones and 185s are coming along nicely. I have travelled on very few voyagers so plenty of work to do when I am bored although the 222 variant is coming down nicely.
I still need 400 EMUs. Again Scotland features strongly. Otherwise need to look at Classes 357, 375, 379, 395, 444 and 450 to make major inroads into those totals.
On the plus side, I have managed to travel on all members of the following Classes
313
315
319
322
332
376
442
455
456
458
465
466
(and for a while, 377s were fully up to date but the delivery of the 377/5 sub class saw the revered status of "Class Cleared" removed)
