So despite Beaulieu Park opening **tomorrow**, tickets to and from the station still cannot be bought on @greateranglia.bsky.social TVMs!
This might need to be sorted soon!

Another really good day out on the rails!
Was out and about in the Birmingham area and was successfully able to tick off 19 stations!
I've been awake since 3:45AM though so I could really do with my bed! Luckily 701037 is speeding me towards it! (not literally don't panic! Lol)

After having 450041 into town this morning, i then spotted 701046 with its new GBR stickers!
Anyway, plan for today is Southeastern stations but a fire near the track at Otford has meant I've already had to replan!
Let's see how this goes!

📌 Honiton
It was going so well... not!
Lost about 12 minutes on the run down from London but it's got to the point the signaller has let the train towards London ahead of us on the single line. Supposed to be out at 11:16, now not leaving until **11:55**!
Who's idea was this!

Can normally do home to Waterloo in roughly 1:30hr. Today... 2:20hrs due to both the cancellations of 2H10 and 2H12 getting stuck behind a broken down train at Wimbledon!
Anyway, luckily made my connection onto 1L17 which I will take all the way to Exeter with 159009 leading!

This is a really nice and scenic line! I also find it quite unique the intermediate stations can fit the 3 carriage unit but yet the two terminus stations can't. You'd expect it to be the other way round!

One of those lines I hear about on videos and on announcements when I'm out! Good to get it ticked off!
Would say for both the trains i was on, the trains are full pretty much from Braintree! Maybe 10 cars all day would help out a lot on here!
