yes - seconded the PA bloke at Farringdon. (Althought he KX bloke did have a good line in deadpan "there is a steam train coming, so there may be a lot of steam...")

Had a 'don't pull the emergency alarms, it's because of the steam train infront of us', from the driver of a C Stock.

Same. Couldn't see my friend last night at Euston Square for some reason, but the steam did fog up the windows with sooty residue when I wiped it

Same. Couldn't see my friend last night at Euston Square for some reason, but the steam did fog up the windows with sooty residue when I wiped it Which proved to be a problem for me (I was the friend). At least I got some photos of both ends of the train. And a video. If anyone was at Euston Square who saw me, I was the one with the iPod and camera! One of the few shots I got there: www.flickr.com/photos/wltmauc/8403737606/in/photostreamAnd, for more photos and video from my blog: wltmauc.blogspot.co.uk/2013/01/lu-150-steam-on-met-200113.html(back as a link), and added my blog link |

If anyone wants to know more about carriage 353 which was originally built in 1892 and was restored by the Ffestiniog Railway in time for last Sunday, see www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-20964986 |

Some more of my photos and videos are here, which include going on the 21:35 from Moorgate. I loved it and bought a whole heap of stuff from the gift shop afterwards, including some rather nice cuff links and a book about Underground heritage by our very own Abe. The photos are also on FB if you happen to know me in real life  |

Went over to Ruislip today and saw the steam trains.
I have to say the whole thing looks like a cicrus train. fake liveries everwhere. awful.

Great runnings from the circus train today and yesterday, in good weather. I see MET has failed again. Just like 1989 all over again.  |
