Weds 12th and Thursday 13th

Wedensday
Running on observational texts from my mother, who reported 16130 - R130EVX at Wisbech Horsefair at 1555hours in bay 2, with no destination. I can only assume it was on 39s as it left at that time.
20513 - R513KSA done the 1605 Wisbech - Cambridge, a turn normally an Olympian, as it would run via Neale Wade on its way in on the 1340 from Cambridge. But since the little terrors are on 6 week break, this isint nessercery.

Thursday
20857 - P857GND done the 1205 Wisbech - Cambridge. Thats all i have for now.

August changes & Sightings


16025 at Wisbech Horsefair after arriving on the 1540 from Cambridge. Recent service changes now see the last two workings from Cambridge to Wisbech (1540 and 1640) now form service 39 departing at 1805 and 1910. Unfortunatly for 16025, it is unable to show either 39 or Long Sutton, but since there was no souls onboard, i dont think itl trouble many people!!
