Class 220/221 Bristol Parkway Manchester and back

This week

All very dull and tedious, nothing remotely interesting :( The best thing I've travelled on this year has to be Hong Kong trams!

30th April:

11:16 Llanishen-Cardiff Central
11:50 Cardiff Central-Hereford

Watched Hereford v Bradford (last home game of the season - a 1-1 draw saw us secure league footbal for next season), then got a lift back to Cardiff - my parents are house hunting in Ledbury and needed somewhere to stay over the weekend!

On holiday in Norfolk last week and we went on the North Norfolk Railway catching the 12:00noon from Holt to Sheringham travelling on the Waggon und Maschinenbau Diesel railbus E79960



and returning on the 1:30pm from Sheringham to Holt travelling on steam hauled coaches with GWR 56xx 0-6-2T 5619



Bought a good book from Sheringham Station "British railways First Generation DMUs" by Hugh Longworth which complements his book BR steam locos, plus an excellent video on East Anglian railways.
