On a voyager because there were cows on the line at brugunallow. luckily, because it was a voyager, we weren't going too fast!

I don't know if it counts as a journey, but I had to look after 67006 at par for a few minutes, on my own :D (listening for radio mesages etc) It was ace cos a voyager got sent down the branch platform whilst we blocked the main line! Weirdest journey is probably FNW 150 from plymouth to PZ-we don't...

The reason 57601 is elusive is because it's had a slight case of a, er, destroyed fueltank, and it at abertawe depot recieving intesive care!

Motorail doesn't run on fridays....I thought all motorail services had ended?!?
By the way, whilst we're on about loco haulage, I saw 4 ( ) duffs yesterday, 47789 on plymouth mail, 47791 LE from blazey, 47744 on the orient express, and 47815 on pz-padd sleeper! what a noisy day!!

JDJonny

If it was a FNW service with FGW stock, hang around, you may see 47750...It'll, er...take you by surprise when you see the livery on the loco (virgin), pulling the livery on the stock (FGW)! Me and 60037 had to put up with the beast as N.A thunderbird for ages!

JDJonny

Incase your wondering, it was me who took the pic of the real one It's not that brilliant because it was a poor resolution digital cam!

well, the engine still works...walking around blazey they had it coupled to 67's and 60's and 47750, hang on, i'll check my notes a second.....60098, 47750, 47306, 67025 '010, '002, '022, were all running. None moved, but all were running at least!!! i don't think it was too well-it sounded like cro...

I'll be at the gala!!!! It's worth it just for the fifties thrash! Still be better if they had a 47 though...but, I think that EWS learnt their lesson about that. They now have 47306 stuck in blazey!!! Not that it bothers me!!!
Cya there I guess!

I saw the ginsters 158 at plymouth...eurgh!
Do you know what sort of time I can see freight at plymouth on a saturday?? Last time I was there, I saw a 60 on bullets at about 10am? Is this weekly or what?

JDJONNY

i dunno if i phrased it right, it was the voyager that ran the red. It was also a 5mph speed limit, that he slowed (quickly) to when he passed the sign. I can't blame him, the sign was on the ground and about a foot high! He spilt his coffee all over the controls though, with the sudden stop! :lol: ...

ok. Yesterday at Blazey, they had a 47/7, 47750 in VIRGIN livery. It was coupled to a rake of 60’s and 67’s and had an EWS logo on the cabside. weird! Also there were two 66's with engines running, and as well as that, there were road/rail diggers doing engineering. We then drove to plymouth, and mi...

Hey Basil, how did u get the scanner to work? I have the same problem and are thinking of buying a new one. I got one with my win 98 pc, and it does not work on my new one. Is it the drivers or something?

JDJONNY

what about EWS St.Blazey?
any hope?

JDJONNY

I still say class 50's are better.
JDJonny slumps back into a state of confusion.
