Had a great afternoon in South Wales 11/09/24 (Lots of reds)
I had problems getting there with very late trains from Birmingham due to cattle on the line north of Tamworth, and getting back wasn't any better with cancelled trains due to the Severn Tunnel being closed for about a hour, but I was pleased with what I got on film that afternoon.
