Imagine my suprise when knowing that there was a steam tour passing the campsite at Bolton - Le - Sands on Saturday morning, the Duke was at the head.

We didn't expect that.

Nice to get some waves from the passengers.

not really to do with this trip, but not really worth a new thread.

Just to say that 71000 was a nice sight coming through Victoria this morning. I think the whistle before and in the station caugth people's attention.
