Title:
Oldfield Park 23.2.08

Description:
25 mins at Oldfield Park to see 67005+67019 Working Westbury-Cardiff for the Wales vs Italy rugby match. A good old blast of the horn from the driver making me happy and also making my heart repulse very unconvincingly! I then made my way to Bath Spa to travel on 67012+67026 on another special this time from Paddington. No clips as i had low battery. HSTs, 158s and a 150 in action at oldfield park, most with horns.

45 Minutes at Oldfield Park to see 60012 working 6B33 Theale-Margam, unusually this freight ran 20 minutes early which took us completely by suprise! Silverlink 150 was on a Stopping service along with a fair few hsts. Only 2 2tones from the drivers but the 2 we recieved were very good so they made up for the rest! One driver needs to seriously sort himself out! All we wanted was a horn but he put his 2 fingers up to us! Fairly offensive and bang out of order! Hope you agree with me!...

A fantastic morning at Oldfield Park. The reason for going down was to see 67026+67016 on 1Z59 Victoria-Cheltenham. We also knew a 66 would show up on the departmental working from Westbury-ADJ 6B65 on the front was 66121 with a cracking 2tone in the distance, although as the 66 approached a HST came the other way so I was a little confused in which would arrive first, the HST won but as i turn't the camera the driver, who is a legend, purposely 2toned next to me!
