[Techniquest]

Hello all! Yes I've not left the scene or anything, I've just been outrageously busy lately, what with the epic 5 day adventure and since then a fair bit of work (a lot more coming up this week coming, the perils of being ridiculously skint, owing people money and needing a decent trip!) so I've not been on the forum for 2 weeks!

This is going to take me a long time to post, as there's a LOT of observations over 5 days and I've still got to cross-reference a lot of them with RTT yet (not that I can do that with a lot of observations, it's only letting me go back a week on RTT so can't get all of it done) to get it all sorted. I had been in two minds as to whether to just shove the lot in rough and incomplete format off the notes on my phone, just to get them done, but I decided to wait until today when I knew I would have a whole day (apart from housework, which still needs doing...) to get caught up with everything.

So then, ladies and gentlemen, here we go with the observations from Techniquest and Red Pen Strike Back (once I've done these I'll finish sorting out the trip report and get it posted!):

Phew, that took long enough! I blame this ancient laptop being unable to cope with Flickr, which means all the photos I took especially for the trip report will not be included after all That's Day 1 done, and believe it or not the above is still a tidier version than I had on my phone! Days 2-5 are coming shortly, once I've made another coffee!

[BREAK]

Washing up mostly getting soaked ready to be done later, third coffee of the day made (I could have stayed in bed earlier for a while, but I had such a lot to do today that I had to get up by 0940 to get on with it, hence 3 coffees in less than 3 hours to get all cylinders firing, all power to the engines!), so here we go again ladies and gentlemen!

OK ladies and gents, I need another break now, my eyes are getting angry with me here! I'll be back shortly to finish off this, although as RTT should let me cross-reference the stuff from 4th August 2014 it'll take a little longer to type up!

[BREAK]

Some washing up done and I've had some fresh air so feel able to carry on now. Plus I've got another coffee going on so let's shove the pantograph up and buzz away (no I have no idea either, I have a strange sense of humour)!

Wow that took me way longer than I thought it would! However it is now all done, and that's the lot from Techniquest and Red Pen Strike Back. Now I'm off to finish off the trip report and get that posted. I've also got about 2 weeks of discussions to try and catch up on!

 

[FQ]

Wow Techniquest!

 

[Techniquest]

It's worth pointing out I saw a lot, and I mean a LOT, more than that lot, as is normally the case. Couldn't definitely ID said trains or get a service noted for them, so you'll have to take my word for it that my previous post of observations is merely 90% of what I saw!

You did see loads!

Did you get 43183 and 43035 all the way from London Paddington to Hereford?

I know, it drained my phone a LOT to keep track of everything

I did indeed, see my trip report for all the details

318262 was working this service today, which I saw at Partick:

http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/G50493/2014/08/14/advanced

It did seem to be unusual to see a 318 going to Helensburgh Central. It is mainly 334s (as they run to/from Edinburgh Waverley via Coatbridge, Airdrie, and Bathgate) with maybe the odd 320 that normally work to Helensburgh Central.

In peace

I must admit I am guilty of this, I just haven't had a lot of time lately, but I will be uploading my observations soon! I must admit I have lost my motivation slightly, as when I was uploading my sightings about two weeks ago I accidentally closed the page, so lost them all before I had finished typing them up!

I'm pleased to inform everyone that I'll be hitting the lines in the capital on Wednesday, which I'm very excited about as I've got a LOT of lineage to cover! (if there's such a word?!). Certainly makes a change from my daily Cardiff/Bristol observations, which I still have two days worth to upload!

Apologies again for the lack of updates, will be adding sightings as soon as I have the chance!

I've not been able to get out and about since I got back from my last trip on 4th August 2014, however there is a tiny, TINY, chance I'll be out and about for a few hours tomorrow. If I don't manage tomorrow, I'll not get a chance for weeks or months :cry:

So why haven't I been anywhere lately? Lack of money, and now I've got no days where a trip is all that possible. Bus service cuts aren't making things easier, those kick in a week tomorrow, and means that even a trip to the Midlands means I have to head home at 1549 from Birmingham, vice 1919 as now. Which sucks beyond sucks, just under 5.5 hours to do whatever I want to do. London, well I'd get maybe 90 minutes before heading back home! Cardiff, slightly more reasonably timed but still. Point is there's no easy way to do a day trip, to do a proper one I'll have to stay over somewhere, and even then I've got to be back in Hereford fairly early as my shifts start and finish 3 hours earlier from next Monday due to the bus service changes. Of course, that'll jack up the cost of trips! With everything else that's going on, it's becoming difficult to do any trips!

I sympathise with you DanTrainMan185, I've done that sort of thing many times and it's beyond frustrating! In case I forget (good chance of that!), have a fantastic time in London!
