Departure Time - a photo on Flickriver

Departure Time

            Atrocious weather conditions had set in since our arrival into Salisbury with gale force winds and sweeping rain bringing down many trees across the South West Trains network. The return journey was therefore limited to 50mph and departed Salisbury an hour early in order to prevent delays getting us back into London Victoria too much behind schedule.

Braunton is seen here after turning and servicing, ready to head the 14:41 Salisbury to London Waterloo via Eastleigh return leg. Even at half two, the damp and windy conditions are evident. The return leg was something of a mystery tour which ended up going via Wimbledon and Tooting rather than Staines. I must congratulate all the crews, support crews, Network Rail and SWT staff who despite the delays and stormy conditions got us back into London Victoria only 3 minutes behind schedule, a remarkable achievement.
