Anorac Alert

edited September 2010 in Not Sports Related
I know other, more important matters are occupying our minds at the moment but I thought I'd mention this as I know that there are at least two other people who may be interested. A steam day tour train is departing Victoria at 10.30 tomorrow morning heading for Hagtings via Bromley South and Rye. It is being hauled by 'Battle of Britain' class 4-6-2 'Tangmere'. This loco was one of the class that hauled the Golden Arrow boat train and other Southern expresses and should make a fine site steming through Kent and East Sussex. It will return to Victoria on a more direct route, via Bromley South, arriving around 4.30-5.00p.m. So if you've nothing better to do tomorrow go and stand on a bridge and get a faceful of soot. Right, now you can throw thigs at me!

    Sounds good, I will just check through my spotting notes for that one.
  • Ball's to the lot of you, you rotten bunch! Given March's recent health problems the bloke can post what he likes and if the thought of steam powered rolling stock gives him a semi that he wants to share news of with us then so be it... ;-)
  • Oh the excitement of digging out the Thermos after a dissapointing summer.

  • Anorak is spelled incorrectly. MY BLOOD IS BOILING
  • It was the visit to the New Den that did it for me, after all the football was sooooooooo boring and there were all those nice trains going passed it seemed far more fun to get the train numbers than watch the numbers on the backs of those little blokes with blue shirts who just didn't look like they knew that it was a football match.
  • Good to see March 51 back and posting.

    The nigels might be a bit quiet on the anorack theme nowadays - given that one of their new backers is REAL railway enthusiast.

  • Thought this was a thread about the Nigel's collecting crisp packets again.
  • Anorak or not, I love steam trains, they take me back to my childhood. Somehow todays electrified commuter cattle trucks don't have the same appeal.

    Nice one March51
  • Hands up who wants to sit next to March 51.....
  • This has got to be a wind up, right????
  • March, have you got the hornby locomotive replica yet? its fantastic
  • Was that after he had the 'shock treatment' or before?

    And thanks Alex, another member of the trainspotters' clique!
