Arriving at Kensington Olympia is 1001...12 hrs later we would be back here.

With the building work for the Olympic village in full swing 1001 takes the line towards Temple Mills East Jct at Lea Jct.

Temple Mills area at Stratford.

I think this was Temple Mille East Jct. Used be above ground the last time I was here....Ok that was back in the 1980's.

Lots of work going on in the Stratford area with the Olympic village and HS1, International station etc.

Somewhere in the Temple Mills area a Long boat and scull pass one another on a canal.

Copper Mill Junction near Temple Mills.

Our route around London took in a few curves that I had not done before, this is Tottenham South Junction to South Tottenham East Jct.

1001 approaches South Tottenham station, a signallers error put a terminating train into the platform in front of us that was not due to depart until 1000, our right time run was delayed by 20 mins as a result.

A pair of tampers are berthed at Upper Holloway.

With the budleah in full bloom 1001 is about to disappear into a tunnel.....I've yet to work out where this was.

Approaching Carlton Road Junction.

Tottenham North curve Tunnel.

Power car S60118 on arrival at Nottingham.

1001 arrived at Nottingahm 5 mins early.

The trailing power car.

An unidentified Northern Trains class 158 with ex Midland Mainline liveried HST power car 43073.

A class 158 and HST power car 43073. Permissive working of platforms at Nottingham allows two trains into the same platform.

Throbbing down the East Coast Mainline we started to overhaul a rake of maroon Mk1 coaches, leading them was A4 Bittern on a return railtour from York to Kings Cross. Some people will not get out of the way from door windows!

Back at Olympia a minute early at 2026 after a great day out.
