CLANG!!! :) We have a winner... 153 376 at Northumberland Park at 14.44 on 6th March.

What about blue and grey...? Pretty please...?

Flight Radar 24 has it as LEQ - or is that a second airfield nearby? Image = screenshot from FR24.

Are these those tractor and trailer based things? There's still one at Clacton isn't there?

No... ...but you are the first to offer a guess on the correct route.

Isn't that what was originally planned anyway when the loop service was created? In which case I would imagine it was modelled and found to be workable?

Excellent work - would never have thought of looking that far across!! I see the big house is still there, pretty much unchanged. The viewpoint from which the photograph was taken must have been from somewhere close to what is now a road called The Glade...

I suspect the Treasury won't allow the extra 2 tph as it will see it purely as additional expenditure ( even though a 15 minute frequency would probably more than double usage and revenue on the loop ).

Interesting, thank you. I notice also that the danger signs at the end - visible in my picture and the drone shot - have been removed and that a new fence has been erected, albeit only on one side of the embankment. Annoying about the heritage board vanishing - hopefully it will re-appear at...

It was the local Sutton area MPs who scuppered the 4tph service simply because they didn't like the idea of them terminating at Blackfriars and they insisted the service ran through the core; apparently the core could not cope with the extra 2 tph on top of all the other proposed services which...

Next time you go past, could you have a look at the heritage notice board near it ( From memory I think it might be at the end of the embankment facing the ruins of the bridge ) and report back on this thread? I'm fairly sure it says it's not exactly where the original signal was - but with my...

Newbury Racecourse historically only had a service on race days; it now has an hourly all day every day service - as a direct result of the developments within the immediate area. If this new stadium at Pilning is tied in with housing, there is no reason at all why it could not become a...

That's a recent re-instatement to mark the heritage of the route, though... it's not the original signal... and it's at the south end of the old bridge, not the north end.

Not Southbury, but this is geographically the closest guess yet.

Since it regularly sells out surely there isn't any point in reducing the fares?
