NL96 Special , running slightly early , was through
Cowan about 8.20pm tonight, with 4201 leading 4520 and 44211. It looked quite
impressive with the long set of stainless steel cars.
There was a "gunzel gathering" on the Down platform
at Cowan (it was still twilight), including Messrs Howard, Buck, Rittson , and
some with video cameras including Bevan & Ross Wall plus Lindsay Lucas
recording the scene for posterity. In Mr Lucas' case, only just, as a call of
nature intervened and he wasn't quite expecting the train to sneak up so
quietly! The gathering was very impressed with the ensuing 20 metre
platform sprint in Olympic qualifying times. :-)
Cheers,
Paul
