Strike day bonus
On a day of ASLEF strikes, a dispute that's been running for the best part of two years, a service of local Basingstoke to Waterloo trains were run. 'Celebrity' unit 5868 leads classmate 5909 forming a special 1123 Basingstoke to Waterloo working and is seen here passing the lovely spring greens at Deepcut. It's unusual to get class 455's on main line services (no toilets and no first class!), in the instance of this route Desiro class 450's are normally provided. A big thank you to Bob & Jamie for the heads up.
