If anyone fancies seeing The Scotsman she is travelling through Chesterfield South at 1243, Clay Cross North at1248, Ambergate at 1304,Derby at 1316, Burton 1330 and onto Tamworth, etc.
Cool, that would make a good pic, your Triumph with the flying Scotsman in the background. A triumph tag?
Looks like a lot of people wanted to see it. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-derbyshire-48170533
Yes indeed. There were people wandering on and off the tracks where I watched from. Mainline trains were slowed down accordingly, must have cheesed a lot of travellers off Happens every time of course, eventually the powers that be will sadly come to the inevitable conclusion. It was a fantastic sight.
If it wasn't so traumatic for the driver I'd say let trespassers get hit and killed for being so stupid. Darwinism and all that.
The train was supposed to go to Paddington but was terminated at Reading as it was running 3 hours late. I did wonder why. Now I know!! Bloody idiots!! If brains were made of dynamite those twats wouldn't have enough to blow their caps off!
