1061 'Western Envoy' on ECS through St Erth - 4th August 1974 Empty stock working - curses! As it turned out, it's last ever working as it was scrapped on arrival at Laira shed! As seen in Adrian Curtis' fine volume - "Westerns Volume 2 - Crewe Built Locomotives...

Morning. Like a fool I missed St Erth, so we've gone back to it. Here is D1061 WESTERN ENVOY on an ECS move. It is 4 August 1974. 📷©️Arnie Furniss. Click the link to see his Flickr selections.

50020 ‘Revenge’ stands forlorn in the scrapyard at Booth’s in Rotherham. With many miles under its belt, a no doubt a flashover or two, its time was almost up. A sad goodbye to what was one of my personal favourites.

720515 in the early morning light at Harwich Town

It’s turning into a lovely morning as 720515 sits at Harwich Town ready to work 1A19 to London

Railways are so beautiful... 🥰

Some class 720 units in the carriage sidings at Parkeston

It’s not quite so grey and misty this morning in Harwich. 720515 is my unit this morning and it’s the middle one of these 3

Your famous blue raincoat was torn at the shoulder
You'd been to the station to meet every train
You came home without Lili Marlene'

An EMD streamlined diesel locomotive in tangerine and silver Vicrail Teacup livery, with horizontal silver bands and a pair of silver lines in the shape of two crossovers forming a stylised letter V (or a teacup to some) against an orange or tangerine background paintjob, hauls a set of passenger carriage in a similar livery away from a platform at a city terminal station.

Today’s historic pic: Exactly 40 years ago today, double-ended streamliner B74 in VicRail tangerine and silver ‘Teacup’ livery hauls a VLine train away from Spencer Street station, Melbourne, March 10 1986. Six-month-old N451 and one of her early N class sisters (N452-N457) are visible at right.

Still quite sore today so will be resting after work. Very frustrating but a couple of days off shouldn’t hurt.

Day 2/4 at work, 05:23 to 13:43. Pass to Harwich, get one out of the yard and take it to Harwich Town before working it to London and back to Clacton. I then have a break and either bring back another empty train or pass home 👍

Good morning Blue Sky. Hope your week has started well and you have a great day today 😊

George is such a cutie #catsofbluesky

Lego breaking is obviously very tiring work 😻 #catsofbluesky

Definitely. An extra rest day if needed will be more beneficial than running on sore legs and making them worse.

My legs are in absolute bits today, have tried some walking, some foam rolling and a recovery ride on Zwift. Hopefully they’ll have loosened up a bit by tomorrow otherwise it’ll be a rest day.

George has found a new position to sleep in when he’s on me 😻 #catsofbluesky

A Lego Saturn V rocket

Apart from the one small broken piece the Saturn V is back together and has been moved to a safer spot 👍

Have a great time 😊

Someone is kindly doing my Walton so I’m home already 👍

Not sure I like the implication here 😂

Not me, Sara is the LEGO fan. One piece is broken so needs replacing too.

Vandaag begin ik aan een periode van 3 weken “buiten reeks”.

Tijdens zo'n periode hebben wij geen vaste planning. Pas op het einde van de ene dienst hebben we dan 100 % zekerheid wanneer onze volgende dienst plaatsvindt, en welke inhoud die heeft.

A smashed up Lego Saturn five rocket.

There has been a Lego based incident over night, a prime suspect has been identified but there are other persons of interest at this stage of the investigation. #catsofbluesky #Lego
