That's a really late finish. Saying that like my depot doesn't have finishes at 0145 too and starts at 0300 😵

Goood evening! Another rather pleasant weather week I'd say.. and my last week in before a week off next week! 🌅 I've been on mostly middle shifts for the past week, with a mix of a few late shifts in there, but other than that it's been a very nice week and good to be at work in the sunshine. 😎

Back to this app I come...! It's been a while, but last week was all early morning preps and the early services to Kings Cross and Moorgate 😴 Other than that, one of the quieter weeks I've had and was nice to be up in the yard at 0300 when it's all silent... and even not get wet from the rain! 😁

Great capture of a 717 there!

717011 sits in Hertford Carriage Sidings. I took this train out as 5B51, to form 2B51, Hertford North to Moorgate.

Well then.. another post! It's been a whole week, but here's another unit sat inside of Hertford North Carriage Sidings.. again! It's been a pretty busy week, with most of the days involving me to go here. Today however, I took this train to MOG, up for a PNB, then another MOG before booking off. 😁

I always found it was more productive for my household to get things done by whoever was at home. Having a fair few rest days means it mostly falls on me but I'm paid in coffee so I'm not fussed 😁

Thought I'd make a post today.. just to get into the rhythm of posting here and there. Today I had a taxi over to Hertford North CHS, where I prepared a unit for service and worked it to MOG, up to WGC and back to MOG before going into Hornsey. The second half was two MOGs before booking off at WGC.

Certainly will spend some time tomorrow taking a look! 😁

Never really seen your stuff before, but found this pretty interesting just scanning on through. Like the background too - looks proper awesome. 🙂

Thought I'd introduce myself.. being new to social media and all that.
