She may not hold that title for long. There are others in the pipeline.
Here for example.

Lets hope they meet their goal. The more I see about the better. While at King's Cross I was amazed at the length of the queue for people to have a photo pushing the luggage trolley through the wall to platform 9 3/4.

Not very complicated, the Britannia came though Newbury the week after the cancellation. Just a comment as I was a bit surprised to see it.

The Tangmere link just details the full timetable which shows a stop at the racecourse for water before moving on to Newbury station. Thought the link to the site was fairly clear as in fact as far as I could see, you didn't post a link, just said that it would be at Newbury and missed the racecourse bit. Sorry if you thought I was stealing your thunder.

Interesting snap of the girl pushing a wall with her trolley.
Did she get rid of the grumpy child?

Funny how films and the internet change some things. My son does odd things like
photographing brickwork,paving stones. The wall at Kings Cross caught my eye.
Too clean for a purist I have since been told. It needs smut.

At the moment he is recreating the old North London Line & the "Poppy line" (Norfolk).
He goes into great detail with things as mundane as telephone poles.
He plans a visit to York to study original details of such things as couplings.

He was a 3d graphics designer for corporate jollies.
That seemed to stop at the buffers some years ago.

Nice to see the new train and to hear that work is ongoing on the next.

My old chum was a railway enthusiast.
The widow has no idea what is stored in the attic. I know there is a signal .
He went on trains to Mongolia for fun. Some of his snaps are great.

Sorry again exhausted, Britannia did not come through this week. (That's what was confusing me.)
Clan Line came through on Wednesday though on the VSOE!

Excellent picture booboo. Bit less crowded around the engine than last time it came to Newbury.

Sorry about the confusion, You are right Biker it was Clan Line that came through not Britannia.

Perhaps you might like to nail a copy of 'Fifty Shades of Grey' on the wall. That should resolve the lack of smut.
