That's OK! Glad you saw it and hopefully enjoyed it 👍

Thanks Tony, You were keen with the early start! I hope the punters survived 12 hours on a train and 4 in a damp Stratford 😅

Not really Tony. The train runs pretty much on a monthly basis and has mostly been power cars in recent times with occasional substitutions by class 37s. These are getting less frequebt as time goes on...

Thank you - hauling a train next time!

@@petertandy4430 hoping to catch em at Little Fenton on the return leg of the Scottish tour .

👍👍

Thank you - great to see them

Nice one Tony! It wasn't too bad at 8.30 but now at 13.00 - phew! Thanks again 🐻‍❄

Thank you 👍👍

Thanks very much Barrie. I can't wait to get them working on a train...

It was good to see and hear them (it actually, as just 50007 was under power!). Thanks Tony

👍👍👍👍

Had to be done! Thanks Tony

Yes, they were audible most of the way to Wilmcote - even setting off a car alarm nearby! Thanks, PT

👍👍

Thank you 👍👍😊😊

Thank you 👍👍!

Yes, it's been a while Tony - hopefully not so long before the next time.

Cheers Jason, it was certainly good to see it working -it would be even nicer on a decent freight one day. Maybe... It was 2007 when last I saw a Peak!

Thanks Tony, well worth fighting the tourist traffic through Chipping Campden!

Thanks Allan, always good to hear it working hard.

Thanks Tony, I wouldn't have bothered had it not been the red & white one!

Hi Jason, Good to hear from you - long time no see. I bet the Castle sounded pretty decent there. I saw a video of it on the Lickey - it looked a bit odd because it wasn't being fired (no dark smoke) and the safety valves were lifting. I would have thought the fireman would have been working pretty hard all the way up with no steam to spare! The 47 sounded a bit thrashy, mind you! All the best Pete

Hi, yes, it has certainly been a while since I last saw you, but then I don`t get out lineside much these days. It certainly did sound decent and plenty of smoke. Hopefully bump into you again one day. Jason

Cheers Tony, I do like to see one or two of these local workings and our afternoon walk coincided nicely with the timings today - hence no still shot but just a ;phone video.

Hi Tony, It's gone into LM to be an exhibit at the annual Rail Live event. The locomotive has done some main line testing so will hopefully be out soon earning its keep. Interesting that 37608 is 63 in July...

Yes Tony, thanks. It cleared up nicely after a foul morning but the luck was with me for this shot with the clouds clearing just in time.

Thanks Tony. It's annoying when the panel put trains in the "wrong" platform when something special is due, especially when the shots would have better if they hadn't.🙄

@@petertandy4430 clearly can't get the staff these day's. Wouldn't have happen in my day. 🤔🤣🤣🤣

@@deauvilledad07 Spot on Tony - it wouldn't have happened when Stratford East box was controlling things!😆

Yes indeed. Imagine that some years ago with a clapped out 47!

Thanks Tony. It was too a chance to miss but the sun was a real bonus. Good luck for once!😎

Thanks Tony. There seem to be dozens of these units at LM along with new 777s. I guess modern units aren't as easy to introduce into service as older stuff!

Thanks Tony, a real piece of luck once again. The otters in the canal are quite habituated to people walking around.

Thank you Tony. It was worth getting up early for the rarity value on the NWL. The station at Henley has recently been refurbished with a micro-brewery and community bar having been incorporated within it. There is a link in the caption to my still shot here...petertandy.co.uk/Recentpics.html ...if you want to see a bit more about it. Cheers

Cheers Tony, too right about the rain. If it hadn't been for the rarity of GBRf stuff down here I wouldn't have gone out!

Yes indeed. The undergrowth has now taken over and there are very few locations left in the Hatton area today. Even this one is going thanks to the bushes allowed to grow in the 6 foot!

Cheers Tony - I remember when they were regular on the line as I'm sure do you. They weren't so well regarded then - locos or nothing for many!

Thank you. I enjoyed looking at your videos from the day. I should have liked a shot or two south of Aynho but wanted to get the Cheltenham Gold Cup special on the North Cotswold Line and was tied up later in the day.
