Yorkshire Ranger 29 September - 04 October 1986
This trip was a track bashing trip to beat them all. The aim of the week was to cover as many of the lines in Yorkshire as possible. It involved the purchase of an Area number 2 rover to get to Leeds and a Yorkshire Rover. The basic plan was to go out on the first train to Leeds each day, cover as much track as possible and return on the last train from Leeds. |
| 150110 at Sleaford 04/10/86 |
The plan worked very well with no problems all week. It was also very pleasant sat on a sunny day in the station garden at Sleaford for a few hours between trains.
