I might come, everytime I've tried to do the Bubbly (nearly 3 times now) it's not been on the road!  Maybe I might strike lucky if I go with you lot. ;D |

Anyone else want to join us? If only I wasn't 100 miles or so west of London and didn't need to go to work |

My photos can be found at yorkie.fotopic.net/c664195.html (captions not done yet), also a few 'A' stocks thrown in. It was great. I wish all DMUs were like that. Someone please give me a time machine And instead of replacing the excellent A stock trains on the Met, they really should sort the track and signalling out! |

Excellent Photo's, both of you! I was going to come... Only to discover that when I woke up it was 14:30!!! (I am a lazy git... Just today I purchased a new Alarm Clock so there's no excuse for waking up late again... ;D) Hope you all had a great time.  |
