And after delays all day on the Caldervale Line, the cherry on top of the cake is that the late running train home is a 158 with the air-conditioning not working.
It's a bit hot on here...:heat: oh, for the opening windows of a 142...
At least it turned up!

strikes on Thursday 24 May and Saturday 26 May

They appear to have fastened the windows shut on "refurbished" 142's.

That really wouldn't surprise me. :wacko:
 
Heading over to Haworth, with SWMBO, daughter (& daughters b/f) on Sunday
Therefore, there will hopefully be 'K &WVR' imagery heading this way

(I also have, what they'd call 'evil plan's, to cajole them into walking up to Top Withens too!!)
Didn't get to walk them to Top Withins, but...........

I hadn't planned having a trip, but SWMBO was all for it:huh:
We travelled to Keighley, then to the terminus, at Oxenhope, & back to Haworth
Then up into the village itself

We had '43924'
The opposing engine was '75078'

As I'm day-off next Sunday, SWMBO wants to go out again
No more weekend days-off, for me, until 7th/8th July!

She did fancy a narrow-boat 'dinner-cruise' at Hebden Bridge, but it's a bit pricey for me!! (£30 - £35/each), so I offered variations
'Oil Can Cafe', now it's moved

I did jokingly suggest the 'NRM', & a 'cruise on the Ouse'..................................
She seems amenable, so there could be more railway imagery next Sunday:okay:


Hebden Bridge, could still be a possibility, with wife & daughter, later in year
They can float/eat, & I'll wander around these
