I am a signalman on the Mid Hants and was given these pictures of Bittern at Newbury earlier this month. The persons name was Roger Thompson a friend of mine and he was happy for me to submit them to the webmaster for inclusion on the site if that was of interest. Could you therefore pass these on to whoever for their consideration. They are not good quality having been taken on a phone but someone might like them as a record.

Some photos of Bittern departing Paddington on Saturday.

Unfortunately (as is usual for charters) she departed from Plat 10 & arrived
Platform 9, which is not the photogenic part of the station while the roof
repairs are taking place. Phil Kitchen
