Welcome to Super Sunday! Some of you may be familiar with Sky Sports Super Sunday football coverage but today I have something completely different, this is Super Tug Sunday! Today’s working is something I had been planning on doing for some time but it involved getting up early on a Sunday plus I need some good weather to boot. Well the weather obliged so I thought I should make the effort.
The target was going to be the Colnbrook tanks which runs from Lindsey to Didcot on the Saturday where it recesses until early Sunday morning before continuing the short distance to Colnbrook. Early morning shots are limited in the Thames Valley but I was sure I could do something in the Cholsey area. I managed to find a nice lineside shot and waited in the pleasant morning sun and I didn’t have long to wait until 60007 eased the 6A70 Didcot Yard – Colnbrook loaded tanks along the GWML making a nice sight.
That would have been the end of the days excitement but despite the forecast the weather stayed good all day so I thought it would be rude not to head out and bag the return working.
I knew the shot at Culham would be even better than when I bagged 70019 a few weeks ago as the days had lengthened even more. Again running right on schedule 60007 worked the 6E38 Colnbrook – Lindsey empties through the Oxfordshire countryside making a fine sight.
