Pete - is this a one off, or are 31's going to be used right through the summer, as in previous years?

Rumours are that the 31s will be back for the entire summer, but only for working Saturdays this time around. Don't think anything has been confirmed yet.

Okay. Don't forget this is running today.
31601 and 31459 are doing the honours.
And when you've finished getting pics of the Peds you can take a ride down the Severn Beach line for half price!
And while you're at it, King Edward is passing through just after dinner.
Not a bad day! (says he, stuck in work
)

A couple of pics taken on Monday 30.5.05. Seems like these trains are working more than just the supposed Saturdays only. They're running today (Tuesday 31st) too!

I really hate that livery...why couldn't they paint them silver with purple trim like the 158s?
