Buffer Puffer 4.0 - 20th January 2007

Here you will find my photos of my trip to chase the Buffer Puffer which is a tour from Pathfinder Tours

Class 319455 Shows off its FCC Livery at East Croydon.
37410 Leads the Buffer puffer into East Croydon.
37410 Bursts into life as it speeds up to head south.
A closer shot of 37410 as it bends into East Croydon
37406 idles at the other end of the 6 coach tour
450003 Heads away from Clapham as the rain heads towards Clapham
373003 Comes into Clapham Jnc sidings, why? I don't actually know!
458s where once like the 442s, coming to the end of their SWT life. But SWT decided to bring them back, maybe we could see the same in the 442s
The other end of 003, but now the sun came out.
The platforms at Clapham Jnc are becoming green, maybe we need some gardeners to attend?
373003 Now heads to where it should be stabled, at North Pole Depot.
37406 Pulls the tour into Victoria.
As it gets even closer it bends round the tight curves to get into Victoria.
Another shot of the tour, this time showing the power plant in the dying winter sun of January.
37410 Slows for a red to let the class 376 South Eastern Service to Cannon St to go first.
After finally been given the road into Cannon St the tour rests as 410 calms down after a hellfire day so far.
37406 gets ready to take the tour to Hayes, though all was about to go down the pan for the people on this platform, well for people taking videos like me.
After going on the unit that bolwed us (376003) we bail at Lewishem as we had time to waste.
37406 gets ready to pull the Buffer Puffer to Waterloo as it nears the end of the tour
37406 about to be passed by a new livery 456
A nice clean shot of 410
This shot shows how 456s are getting new livery's, one being Southern's livery other being the NSE (Network South East) Livery a.k.a. Toothpaste
