What a fantastic tour it was. 17 people came along the Hampshire Yard Bash and I everyone seemed to enjoy it. Some new passengers on the tour, along with some familiar faces from the Somerset Yard Bash 1 and 2.
As always, trying to plan the schedule isn’t easy, so we did slip behind time through the day as I underestimated the time we’d need at some places. I don’t like to rush people and provided we ran no more than 30 minutes late we should be OK.
We got our visit’s at Xelabus, Wheelers (Hedge End), Emsworth & District, Stagecoach Portsmouth, Lucketts and Portsmouth Preservation. All were very accommodating and had some interesting vehicles to see.
I’d like to thank everybody for their donations for the City of Portsmouth Preserved Transport Depot. We at Chandlers have also made a donation and we would like to thank them for our visit.
I ‘d also like to thank those on the tour for coming along and I hope you enjoyed the tour. I’d also like to thank my support crew Margaret for hosting and Steve for spending the day driving for us.
Spotting Log
Where possible I tried to note everything down for reference, especially if people need to tie up their logs. Unfortunately I did not get a log at the Salisbury Go South Coast depot so if you would like to contribute to this, feel free to e-mail me your logs, or any missing registrations I may have missed.
Thanks to Kevin Pankhurst for filling in the Wheeler’s section for me, most appreciated!
