Dreadful weather and not my favourite livery - but great to see 33029 and 33207 a little after Verney Junction with PathfinderTours The Verney Venturer - the first public passengers over the newly reopened East-West route?

This is not something I’ve seen before - is this new from DRS or a one-off? 68002 sounding so much better than the usual 66s as it passes Tring on 4L48 Daventry to Tilbury

Caught out here… didn’t intend to be shooting from halfway up the footbridge steps, but reasonably happy with the result.

A rare visitor to Tring this week. 59004 rolls through in fading light running 0G59 Earles Sidings to Wembley.
This is the first time I’ve seen one of original 4 since seeing them at Reading when they were new in 86… hard to believe they’re coming up to 40 years old!
