Thursday 6th May 2010 ~ 'X' Marks the Spot

So with me esconced in a village hall with some ballot boxes miles some two miles from the X1 route from 06.30 - 22.00 today, it was down to the rest of you to report the days proceedings.
Andrew James says "As Gerard is busy at the polling station today and Bruce has relatives visiting I thought I would provide some sightings, so I took up my usual post at King s Lynn - here's what I saw...

1432 - Y13 - 20109! came in from PBO but was swapped with 37576 which worked forward to LOW 10 late.
1445 Pbo K19 - 37570 on time
1502 Lft K14 - 37569 on time
1515 Pbo K1 - 37574 on time
1532 Lft K15 - 37578 5 late
1545 Pbo K2 - 37564 on time
1602 Lft K16 - 37156 5 late
1615 Pbo K3 - 20501 on time
1632 Lft K17 - 37562 5 late
1645 Pbo K4 - 37565 on time
1702 Lft K18 - 37157 on time
1715 Pbo K5 - 37575 on time
1732 Lft K19 - 37570 13 late
1745 Pbo Y6 - 37563 on time
1802 Lft K1 - 37574 on time

Great stuff Andy, thanks very much for that marathon session. Rob Brooks confirms several of the above too and other sightings reported were from Bruce :

Y6 37563, Y7 37579, L10 37567.

After delivering the ballot box, I persuaded my sister to drive past Vancouver Avenue. Inside were 37572 off Y9 and 37577 off L11. This just leaves two turns unaccounted for. L8, which looks to have started as booked with 37573, but was changed for the missing 37568 at Lowestoft and L12 which we met at Walpole Highway at 23.10 with 20107.
20109 which was seen by Andy arriving on Y13 had replaced 37576 for the 11.45 to Peterborough and 576 was obviously OK to resume the diagram at 14.32. This may well be the last appearance of 20109 for a while, as its MOT expired today. Sam says 20127 was used on the 17.08 Lowestoft - Norwich X2 this afternoon.
