Attractive April
1st April 2008 to 30th April 2008

A change of jobs has given me less time to get out and about during the week. However, 2 good charter trains passed Cossington during the month with 40145 and a pair of EWS Class 37 loco's working respectively. Froth Tug 60074 also put in an appearance at the end of the month on the 6E38 Colnbrook - Lindsey empty bogie tanks
