Nice End To The Day

Well it was nice to see this view on my way home at the end of another long day to Leeds and cheered me up and finally I get to sit spare at noon tomorrow fingers and legs crossed anyway it was mostly nice weather apart from between Darlington and Durham when it chucked it down big time not a lot else happened today apart from a delay south of Newcastle as a group of southbound trains were stopped whilst track workers checked the track after reports of rough riding so an emergency speed restriction of 20mph was put in place as by the colour of the sleepers was a grey colour which when I seen it new it was what in Railway terms is called a " Wet Bed " and no that doesn't mean someone soiled there bed lol it's when an area of trackbed becomes sodden and creates wee spaces under the sleepers which in turn move up and down squishing a grey water up over the sleepers and due to the movement of the sleepers causes the trains to bounce a little or sway a little and at high speed it accentuates the rough riding experience no extra charges for the pleasure of course lol anyway enough of wet beds and rough riding hmm and that was it for today so now to my blip crossing the Forth Rail Bridge as the sun started to go down now then movie for the day is " RoughRiders 1997 " Looks good HUGE as always See Ya
