The 5Z65 Crewe-Northampton was around an hour late by the time it passed Church Brampton, and by this time, the position of the sun (when not blocked by the many floating clouds) was past it`s prime, but I`m not Grumbling!

92007 heads the 6X77 Wembley-Mossend, and this train also featured another loco move, this time it`s 37401! The train is approaching Watford village. However, I soon became unhappy after taking this photo, as I had to YET AGAIN divert from the public footpath due to a slobbering bull, and for 'safety' reasons, had to climb over a barbed wire fence and trudge my way back to the car through yards of thistles and nettles. What`s worse is that I slashed my suit trousers on one of the barbs, so my evening ended up with me cursing...............
