Just split this 8 car, with the front bit being diverted to Bognor Regis vice Southampton, and I'm taking mine to Chichester.

Ended up having to go to Portsmouth, due to someone being late booking on.

Early cover again, so another 03.30 start! 😮😮

It's a long walk to the front of a 12 car! 😂 😂

Morning, I was early cover, but surprise, surprise, I've got a job.

Under the arch of Brighton.

Here we have an 8 car Gat Ex stock that I'm working from London Victoria to Littlehampton.

Last train of the day was late when I got it at Barnham, so was terminated at Fratton.

Back for 2 days and I start with a Southampton Central and back via Eastleigh.

Day off and had a lovely walk from Whiteways to Bignor with some work mates.

This was my last train of my 7 days on. My "weekend" beckons. 😊

387302 last night, and 387202 today. I wonder if I'll get 387102 later! 😂

Made it to Southampton this time. And I've got a 387300 series. I think this is it's first day of service for Southern. White train with blue doors!

Due to late running, I've been terminated at Fareham and put in the bay platform.

First train of the day, and it's late.

Haven't bought a 377 down to Southampton for a while, and I got to go in platform 4.

Made it to Southampton, and it's a lovely evening.

Back in today, and got this off late cover as someone had a fatality earlier in the week.

We've booked a week in Pickering in July. This is the view from the bedroom window.

Here we are again with a white (ish) train.

Morning, made it to Southampton in my red train today.

Here we have a red train at Portsmouth & Southsea. I was meant to go to Southampton, but due to signal problems I got sent here.

Morning, starting the day with a couple of Littlehampton Chichester shuttles, then Southampton and Brighton later.

The good news is that I'm competent for another 3 years.

Morning, a day at Littlehampton today for my rules day. Wish me luck! 😂 😂

Today's brew with a view at Portsmouth Harbour, with HMS Warrior and HMS Queen Elizabeth in the background.

Made it to London, now waiting for my train to Littlehampton.

Morning, first day of 7, and I start with a prep and a shunt out of the sidings at Bognor, before taking it to London Victoria.

This evening's brew with a view. 😊

Late cover, but just a cheeky Southampton.

Well, what an evening that's been! My train to Portsmouth was 30 late getting to Barnham. Then told that I'm terminating at Havant. Get to Emsworth with a green, only to be contacted by the signaller that there's a points failure at Havant. 90 minutes later I leave Emsworth!

Last train of the day, and I'm going off platform 12 this evening.

Same job as yesterday for day 5 of 7.

Have I just seen Elon Musk doing a Nazi salute at Trump's inauguration! 😲 😲 😲 😲 😲

Mid cover today, but I've been to Portsmouth in a red train. Now watching Shawshank Redemption.

A quick video of a class 387 train.

Passing back from Brighton, so time for a coffee and Netflix. 😉

My train down the sidings, before being prepped, and in the station afterwards with no faults found.

Morning, back at it early doors. I'm now on for 7 days on the bounce.

Looking down from the overbridge at Southampton.

I'm so glad that they put Sussex under Fishbourne. I could have ended up on the Isle of Wight! 😂

Morning, the delights of Bognor mess room! I start the day with some Bognor Barnham shuttles, then finish with a Southampton.

An unexpected ecs run to Brighton. My train to Southampton was cancelled due to an operational incident and sent to Brighton instead.

A picture of of me taken earlier at Barnham by Blake from the platform.

A lovely evening at Portsmouth Harbour earlier.

A sunny, but cold day at Southampton.

Morning, first day back for the new year. Only in for the 1 day, as I'm long weekend after today.

That's it, last train of the year. Hope you all have a lovely New Year's Eve and 2025 brings you everything you wish for.

Made it into the low level this morning.
