This morning's Putney mainline steam was No 35082 Clan Line, hauling The Railway Touring Company's "The End Of Southern Steam" to Weymouth. Taken from the footbridge over the Putney cutting.

A nice progressive move from Labour: apparently James Timpson is being given a peerage and made prisons minister.
For non UK folk, his high street chain of key cutting and shoe repair shops has a policy of employing ex-convicts giving them decent jobs to avoid reoffending. It works.
