     A respectable 87.0 mins net up from Coventry, but       
     some strange easings (Blisworth and again at Wolverton) 
     considering the delay at Coventry which made us 10 Late 
     away. Or was it momentary distants, a possibility since 
     we were badly checked at Bletchley.                     
                                                             
     45634 was sporting a Bushbury (3B) shedplate, although  
     she was not one of the regulars. It was probably a      
     temporary allocation from Crewe (5A), her normal home.
