The XC arrived as the EMT to London was leaving hence my attempt at doing all three chords North of East Midlands Parkway will have to be done in bits now.

Bloody slow drivers on the A52/A523 though!

Glasgow is great for bashing. I usually get a roundabout ticket and that's valid on the underground too if you're into that.
Mrs djpontrack and I are staying in Glasgow next week so I hope to score a few more units and shacks including a trip on the Wemyss Bay line to get IBM before its closed/mothballed.

Few more to add to the list (all arrive and depart):
Waddon
Belmont
Banstead
Epsom Downs
Kingswood (Very nice station with excellent café down the road...Cheesecake top notch! Nice pub as well, although both pricey)
Tadworth (Another fine station with the old booking office turned into trendy bar type place...good view over the tracks!).
Chipstead
Coulsdon Town (aka Smitham)
Reedham

Two branch lines almost complete. Btw, the walk from Epsom Downs to Tattenham Corner looks easy on Google Maps, but allow 25-30 minutes to do it. Requires walking on public footpaths in places as A-Roads are very busy and no paths.
