2 June 2008 6H55 was back on the WCML again, but as a one off 1315 departure from Bletchley. 60068 passes Bradwell at 1330.

2 June 2008 66533 replacing the normal 90 on 4M81 at Bradwell on a gloomy Monday.

2 June 2008 Although the weather did improve somewhat, the light was fading fast as 5pm approached. 92041 hauls 92026 DIT in 6A42 at Wolverton.

2 June 2008 By the time Tangmere was due the light had gone completely and she shut off as she came round the bend. A very dark record at Wolverton of the 5Z46 Carnforth-Southall

2 June 2008 I decided to head for Soulbury, 6A42 was booked at Bletchley for an hour and Tangmere due a water stop. As I arrived Tangmere sailed through steaming well, no need for water, and 6A42 hadn't stopped either! Doing its impersonation of Tangmere, 56301 with a Northampton-Grain after 56303 failed on 30 May. 56301 was also to fail later in the week.

2 June 2008 Having missed Tangmere and 6A42, consolation was found in 6X77 which included 37401 and 37417 sandwiched between 92013 and 92029.

4 June 2008 A unproductive sunny day with just 350124 to show for it on the 1409 Northampton-Euston at Wolverton

5 June 2008 Thursday was sunny and promised so much - I just missed 4A27, messed up my shot of 4L41 and missed 60059 on the Bletchley-Peak Forest completely!! 350111 is a token record of a visit to Bradwell.

6 June 2008 Having missed 180110 when it worked from Crofton to Oxley previously I was lucky to catch the return working, though it was unfortunately on the fast at Wolverton limiting the shot.

6 June 2008 66017 was in charge of the 6A51 Coventry - Wembley perrier empties at Wolverton.

6 June 2008 Just after 1pm, 66415 leads 47802 south from Crewe to Wembley.

6 June 2008 47802 at Wolverton.

6 June 2008 After a couple of days working with 56301, 56311 was in sole charge of the 4O90 Birch Coppice to Grain in the rain at Wolverton.

8 June 2008 No Sunday morning drags this week, 390023 on 1B14 Wolves-Euston lost its 57 at Nuneaton and as a consequence was 30 minutes late passing Chelmscote.

9 June 2008 66723 heads north at Bletchley as 0L22 to Hams Hall to collect the afternoon Felixstowe liner.

9 June 2008 92030 leads 90039 in 6A42 from Warrington to Wembley at Milton Keynes, a train which it was suggested may convey the 87s on route to Bulgaria, but not to be. The new crossovers are visible underneath the reopened Loughton footbridge.

10 June 2008 A sunny start at Bradwell - 56311 on the empty 4M60 Grain to Trafford Park.

10 June 2008 An unexpected bonus on a visit to Wolverton for the 323 was 86639/86622/90041 heading 4L75 from Crewe-Felixstowe.

10 June 2008 323217 is the latest unit to arrive Wolverton for repainting as 323216 left later that afternoon in LM colours.

10 June 2008 The NMT on its fortnightly Tuesday Derby-Euston run on the slow lines is photographed at Ashton. 43014 and 43089 were the power cars.

10 June 2008 We made a quick move to Blisworth to catch Scotrail liveried 90021 on the 1G21 Euston-Wolverhampton.

12 June 2008 153356 slows for Ridgmont on the 1059 from Bletchley.

12 June 2008 The cows take little notice of the out of place Network WM liveried 150126 on the 10:51 Bedford-Bletchley.

12 June 2008 6H72 returned to its booked route with 60096 passing Ridgmont around an hour late.

12 June 2008 A trial run this week was a Daventry-Ripple Lane and return. 66416 leads a short train as 4M71 back from Ripple Lane at Bradwell.

12 June 2008 Last week the flasks ran early, so I though it worth another try. This time they ran almost 100 early as 20312/315 return a single flask from Dungeness to Sellafield as the 6K51 Willesden-Crewe.

13 June 2008 Friday the 13th was dark and cloudy but produced no less that seven 86s. 86604/637 were in charge of the 4L57 Daventry-Tilbury at Northampton, although at one stage a lengthy 4H17 looked as though it was going to wipe out this shot.

13 June 2008 350120 heads for Birmingham spot on time.

13 June 2008 90045 eases 4M81 through platform 2 at Northampton.

13 June 2008 92019 rolls the Mossend - Dollands Moor empty tanks upto the signal to await departure of the Desiro.
