Dreadful weather and not my favourite livery - but great to see 33029 and 33207 a little after Verney Junction with PathfinderTours The Verney Venturer - the first public passengers over the newly reopened East-West route?

A rare visitor to Tring this week. 59004 rolls through in fading light running 0G59 Earles Sidings to Wembley.
This is the first time I’ve seen one of original 4 since seeing them at Reading when they were new in 86… hard to believe they’re coming up to 40 years old!
