Hi WTD
Yes, Eastleigh it is. Hoping Steve took the photo today I think I'll have to pay a quick visit tomorrow ;)

The new livery certainly divides opinion.
Personally I think it quite suits them, but I was talking to a photographer from Cardiff yesterday who hates it. He had planned to chase the tour yesterday, but partly because of a bad weather forecast chose to drive up to Cheshire instead. We were both taking some photos of a class 60 on an empty limestone limestone train from Lostock works to Tunsted.

The views on the comments section of the YouTube video were mixed too.

Well I think they look splendid. People are far too picky. :)

I was only able to get a photo of one of them (the other was hidden by a vehicle ) but as a consolation prize got a photo of the 66 in BR Large Logo livery. I was surprised to see that one. :o

Really suits them. Rather see them working in this livery than not at all.
