Runners mill around at the bottom of Tower 42
Demolition of the Bacon Factory, and Railway Dereliction, Ipswich and London - 5th March 2013
There's some random running action on the cycle through London, as there's an Oompah band and a load of runners ready to run up to the top of Tower 42, formerly known as the NatWest Tower, in an event called Vertical Rush. Then, there's the ongoing demolition of the old Bacon Factory on the edge of Ipswich, which has almost reached completion. Finally, there's more documenting of the dereliction and graffiti along the line into Liverpool Street, and at the station is 975025 Caroline, an inspection unit also used as a VIP excursion unit, which was even used by the Pope in 1982. There's also Class 37 37423 "Spirit of the Lakes", which is in service to haul Caroline around.
