I'm confused...there was a steam (or two?) loco went through FAW this morning about 11:00-11:30 and let off one hell of a long whistle...

I've looked up and couldn't see any tours through Abbey Wood today?

Although booked to go in Yatton loop on the return it actually ran straight through.
Well done to the video recording enthusiast who stood within the fence and thought it OK to do so because he acknowledged passing trains with a raised arm.
It's people like you who give enthusiasts a bad name :!:
