A Brush @ South Greenford - a photo on Flickriver

            A bit of an early start for this one, though not as early as for the passengers on this 'Bath Christmas Market Express'. It had left Dorridge bound for Bath at 5.49am! 70000 Britannia was going to be put on in place of the lead 47, D1924 'Crewe Diesel Depot', at Hanwell Bridge Loop for the last stretch to Bath Spa. 57 311 was on the rear. It passed though here, South Greenford almost 20 minutes late having left Dorridge a bit late. Then it got held up trying to squeeze onto New North Mainline via the Chiltern Line and onto the Greenford Branch between morning Chiltern services and the Greenford Shuttle. However, this late running meant that by the time it passed through Greenford the clouds had passed and the sun was rising. And even though it wasn't steam hauled at this point, D1924 had entered traffic in 1966 making her 58 years old having carried 3 other numbers and two other names in the meantime!
