Had a few hours to pass while waiting for car to be serviced, with the railway being nearby I decided to jump on train and head to Bristol temple meads, I walk to Bridgwater station and purchase day return for £9.80. I take a walk along platform 2 as I wanted to photo the siding where the nuclear flasks are loaded on too the pair of 37s that ran yesterday. Don't get Wednesdays off so always miss them, there's a train due in 10 mins for the 51 min journey to Bristol. On the way passing two GBRF 66s that I couldn't get my pen out to note down in time.
I have an enjoyable 1hr on the station, with plenty of 150s, 158s, HSTs and a 66 to photograph. Before it's time to go home. back on the next train home, and it's off to get car and pick up the wife and her shopping. She asks where I've been and I tell her I sat in the pub for 2hrs.
Enjoyable unexpected trip out and I'm glad I had camera with me in car.
