Yes, It's the 7F-049-003  in Railfreight that Tower are showing for late 2020 now, so that will be on my list.

 

[Andrew P]

Not that many photos of 13003 in Black, but here it is on No 2 Fuel Road.

It's same as the one I drove at Loughborough GCR, just along the Line and back.

I've had it about 4 years I think.

All very quiet down at Seven Mills this morning, with the lone Duff, 47199 stabled overnight in the old Engineers Siding.

[Andrew P]

Class 08, No 08173 in BR Blue, creeps over the Level Crossing from Seven Up Junction into Seven Mills Yard with a lone Railfreight Liveried OAA in tow.

[Father Dougal]

I watched your YouTube video of the black 08, very nice.

Love the shots from this angle Andy

 

So simple but you just get the feeling of the rest of the network behind the trees.

Thanks Dougal, The two 08's have Paul Chetter Sounds, but I think he has done 3 now from different Locos, I have V1 in the Blue one, and V2 in the Black one. I also have David / Jintymans big round speaker in the Blue one, and his large square Cube in the Black one, so the sounds are just very subtly different.

Thanks for watching and your comment.

Thanks Paul, frightening really, when you think what tricks the mind can play on you.

I disagree! The network is behind you and wenford bridge ahead!

Don't look at the Lamp Post, I have straightened it a bit now.

Something very wrong when your phone can do more than your laptop

My Phone makes calls and receives calls, sometimes I get cut off, and sometimes I don't.

 

I went to add my Security Camera to it a few weeks ago, that apparently needed an Ape, I don't know what Ape's are doing using Mobile Phones, and it said it was to old. I said BO**OCKS, I've only had it about 8 or 9 years.

 

I may need to upgrade one day, as some people say that Hieroglyphics are going out of fashion now a days.

33012 creeps out from under the Mills Lane Bridge from Dore End, whilst an un Identified Rat and a pair of 20's sit on the two Fuel Roads.

Just been down to Seven Mills early, and saw the Black 08 Yard Shunter 13003 moving the Warwell into the Top Yard, it will probably go into a Train later for the MOD yard at Dore End.

[Andrew P]

An extra pic for today, as 08173 brings and old Brown VAA down the Yard, whilst Black 08, No 13003 moves away to the Disused Station, and will run back down the Loop Track.

Close up of 20156 leaving the Fuel Roads and passing the Lazy Gang.

Then zooming out, Railfreight liveried 20156 coupled to 20142 in Blue.

Cheers Al, I've never been there, but I can imagine, cheers.
