Signaller requested I go via Chadd to get on to the RTC from Litchurch Lane this evening. Stroke of luck as the sky caught fire as I changed ends. 0R57 Derby Litchurch lane - Derby RTC. Nice addition to my Sunset collection.

Today was an early morning run down the WCML from Derby to Preston with 37884. For a 60 year old loco it’s an amazingly smooth ride.

Sometimes being up early, or late if you’re finishing nights, has its plus side.

Good to live life on the edge. Mind that was 30 years ago stood on the edge of the Grand Canyon. Sense of balance not quite the same now.
