So here I was, stood like a scarecrow minding my own business, when out of nowhere approached a figure asking "what are you doing in my field"? Of course I knew it wasn't "his field" but he lives under the bridge further up, and eventually he buggered off, much like the Snow & Ice Treatment Train (SITT) with 66764 and 66772 that I was waiting for that was booked to run to Weymouth, but instead had terminated short and returned to Totton Yard from whence it came. So, something of a consolation prize I guess was South Western Railways Class 159 No.159007 as it heads down Christchurch bank operating 5Y14 11:44 Salisbury T&RSMD - Bournemouth T&RSMD departmental move. Bournemouth undertake C4 exams on these units which involves new wheels and new air and fuel tanks.
The area to the right has been granted outline planning permission, which will ultimately transform this whole area and the loss of the only decent photographic location in the area. Details here www.taylorwimpey.co.uk/new-homes/christchurch/roeshot-gra...
