A few workings from Cock Lane and Hurn Road with a rare visit to Foxcovert Road where the lineside vegetation is getting worse around the footbridge. We see a VolkerRail tamper plying the Joint Line on route learning duties and 66589 also being used for route learning on the Stamford Line. At Cock Lane we see Network Rail's repurposed class 153's converted to video inspection units for checking track and switches. Vintage Trains 7029 Clun Castle on a day tour from Kings Cross to Lincoln puts on a spirited display on its return journey via the ECML passing Hurn Road. One has to wonder how the Castle would have performed had it been given the Up Fast down Stoke Bank instead of the Up Slow.
The Rail Head Treatment Train is out and about, although rather premature in my opinion as the leaves are still on the trees. Whilst this years good weather still prevails we see the farmers busy sowing next years crops all aided by GPS these days and the old wily fox prowling the four foot at Hurn Road with no high vis. He doesn't care though, he's just looking for a place to take an afternoon nap and chooses a nice warm spot just feet away from those noisy trains.
