The Branch Line Society "Type 3 to the Sea" 37706+37518 TnT 37669 10/08/19
First Station I wanted to film was at Nuneaton but there was no trains from Coventry, so I went to Rugby which was a good move as the train went through platform 2.
All was OK at Watford Junction but after that it all went very wrong for me, as I should have changed trains at Haslemere, but the fast one didn't stop at Hilsea so I stopped on my train which turn out a bid mistake,
Then a train hit a tree and smashed the window screen on the opposite line which delayed my train by 24 mins which meant I missed the next shot, but the fast train was only delayed 12 mins so I filmed the 1Z75 to Eastleigh and made my way back to London as I couldn't get to Littlehampton to visit a Spoons pub because of trees across the line.
