Seen at Temple Meads today (Sat) was what may have been 6W04 or 6W05, a very long ballast train hauled by Hanson's 59101 and tailed by 59205.
Awesome :D

Not me :cry:

Spent most of the weekend either visiting the rellies, or riding the Strawberry Line on my bike. Got some nice pics of what's left of Congesbury station, but not much else. (did have a nice picnic on Yatton station too, and seemed to get approached by everyone and their dog asking for information on train times and from which platform to travel from.... I must ooze 'trainspotteritus' 8) ).
