Not particularly good weather today but the company (PP) and the locos made up for it.

Very nice Steve. I don’t think the dull weather has affected the photos. No glare.

I won't bore you with the details but it was touch and go whether we got anything at all today. PP has some good ones to share as well.

No Barry, it's the Q class. They do have a new-build Atlantic, Beachy Head, under construction at Sheffield Park - occasionally the shed is open for viewing, but not yesterday when I popped in early. It should be an impressive sight when finished.

Twas nice to see you, Steve, just a pity the Weather Gods were against us (oddly enough it always rains when I go out with WTD). I haven't much idea how I did as I haven't downloaded the camera

Judging by the weather I ran into on the way home I reckon we got the best of the weather at Horsted Keynes.
