A very very rare event. Well there is one train on site this week for wheel turning. Came via Rayners lane, another rare event.

It was pretty cool to see it doing a reasonable speed down the southbound fast (I was going northbound at the time) between Preston Road and Northwick Park, overtaking whoever was crawling out of Northwick Park on the local (with confusion on their face!). (Though it still isn't as good as an A stock!)

I wonder when a D stock was last at Neasden for wheel turning and ran via Rayners?

I've been on one when they had to stock up on de-icer about 10 years ago as the train couldn't get back in Ealing Common due to bad snow.

Unfortunately this will be a common occurrence soon as they head towards Northwood and beyond!
