The Grid Arising

Photo Report

The day began with 66's like normally. Hearing one as we went out of the back door! Typical. After a short ride to hatfield and stainforth where it was sunny when we arrived just out of no where the Fog decided to come and make the shot at the best crap! 47851 Departed with 47245 tailing sounding great and the clag all staying in the same place casue of the fog. Also at stainforth was a STOATFACE but the real kind not the spotter's (Picture below). Once at doncaster when for a walk to the roberts road deport to discover they have put a 6ft fence up so you can no longer get photos from hexphore. Typical. On the way back over the mainline 60042 went by on 6D78?? which if i am right is Neville hill tanks. Then at doncaster it had its busy spells to the tour started to come and the convoys started to come around which made the day good overall at the end. Only put a few shots on have a browse.

First shot of the way and the fog shines.
