After yesterday’s non-event, it’s not saying a lot to report that today was better, with four freights, all 753.7 hauled, and more sun. There were still a couple of violent thunderstorms to dodge though and I needn’t have gone out until late afternoon as it was only the third freight, at 17:36, that passed in good light. Fortunately it was at one of the locations at the top of my wanted list. As well as the CD Cargo 753.7s, a pair of AWT locos was seen but only light engine.

On the passenger side it was all units again but the use of 843.005 on a number of morning workings was a surprise. The other turn was a 3 car 814 all day and in the afternoon a second 3 car 814 replaced the 843.
