    3 days of work then Railfest on Saturday. 400 mile + round trip but is going to be worth it :)

  2. Dan Hill

    After attempting to see 44932 yesterday I am hoping for better luck at Woking to see Tornado tomorrow

    After seeing some great Hornby announcements, Santi (Cazorla) Claus gave me extra reasons to be happy

    Anyone know any reasonable priced hotels near the NRM in York. Planning on going to Railfest and NRM on eith 8th and 9th June or 9th and 10th June

      There used to be a good youth hostel just up the river ... fairly easy walking distance.

    Booked my Ticket for Railfest 2012 at York. Haven't been to York for 14 Years when I was about 6 or 7. Fingers crossed 4472 is ready for static display there.

      Which day you going? I'm going on the 8th for both the daytime and evening session.

      I'm going the day after you. 4965 Rood Ashton Hall is bringing in a railtour to York that day and have yet to see any of the Tyseley fleet. I'm hoping I'll have enough time to look round the NRM but not to sure if I will.

    Bought an Academy Educational Kit of Trevithick's Penydarren. Which is a great kit despite the fact that the loco itself is actually his earlier Coalbrookedale loco

    Can't wait to go to the Bluebell tomorrow.

    Finally had Tornado through my hometown. Mind you I also saw her two days ago as well.

    Great day at Railfest. Time for bed I think as I was up at 5:00am and its nearly midnight.

  14. Dan Hill

    Great day yesterday.

  15. Dan Hill

    Had a great time on The Mayflower with Bittern and Nunney Castle. Have now ridden behind Southern,LNER,LMS,GWR and BR locos on the mainline

    Having an afternoon of watching Railway DVD's that arrived yesterday. Starting with Britain's Railways The Golden Age of the Big Four then I have the boxset of Central Steam. Just waiting for my Kingfisher Bulleid Pacific DVD as well as my Series 1 and 2 of Chris Barries Britains Greatest Machines and Mark Williams On The Rails.

    It may be immature but been laughing at the name of one of the Marseille footballers called Rod Fanni. As Tom Baker once said in an episode of Doctor Who ''There's no point in grown up if you can't be childish sometimes''

  18. Dan Hill

    Just finished watching Toy Stories. Britain beats the Germans twice today then. Yah

    Looking forward going up to Mallard 75 tomorrow.

  20. Dan Hill

    Looking forward to Saturday. Planning a visit to the NRM and just looked to see any railtours in York and without knowing found out that both 5043 (which funnily enough went to York last time I went there in June) and 60009 will be coming in on tours. That means I can finally see 60009 as well as 60008.

    My Mum bought me a Flying Scotsman 4 DVD set with Flying Scotsman (1929 Film), Tender Memories (1966), Australia (1988 and sadly already have) and A Year in the Life (2000). I just watched Tender Memories and was delighted to see 4472 steaming near Haywards Heath and a few shots of her at Brighton. A shame it was 25 years before I was born. Hopefully one day it can happen again.

      That's what I got too!

    Off to see 60163 Tornado tomorrow at Chertsey

  23. Dan Hill

    Sat at home and watching F1 but strangely I hear train whistles and Tangmere has been through and not returned yet and I don't normally hear the Bluebell locos. Making a nice change to the horrible Gatwick Express 442's.
