Saturday	This day the shuttle was to be formed of 33103 and a 31, but the 31 failed. The class 45 was so nearly sent out to play but it was not to be. So 47832 did the honours	Saturday, 24th September, 2005
Sunday	Having scouted out the locations the previous day it was time for the main event. Harry Needles recently repainted 20s 096 and 905 came out to play. The weather didn't look good to start with but after a brief bit of rain the sun came out.	Sunday, 25th September, 2005
