My first Acton Bridge vid of 2010 coincided with -5°c temperatures and freezing fog.
As I am British, I am hard, so I braved the grim weather, and let the camera roll.
Plenty of variety here chaps & chapettes, so enjoy yourselves.
I decided to leave at 1pm as the most racist old 'man' regailed me with stories about "thieving n*igg*rs" in South Africa, and as my wife is a black South African, I decided to leave before I fractured his skull.
Sadly, 70006 passed as I got into my car.

@DRS47501 Thanks for noticing the sound mate. It was well worth braving the abysmal conditions for the fantastic crackling pantos!!

@Dinasdash Thanks for the comment - I can't say anything about Thursday, as I only get there on Tues/Wed, but the earlier the better for the sparks..

I have found Tuesdays and Wednesdays to be the best days to visit AB.

@DennisPlaxtonSlf Thanks mate - the -5° temperature was a shock as I'd just got back from South Africa where it was 38°c!!!

Thanks H - sad thing is, that every time he used a racist word and I said that I did not like that sort of thing, he apologised, then did it again... In the end I said "Don't apologise for being a racist - it's not your fault that you are who you are. I am simply better than you, and I make no apologies for that".

@Isochest Cheers Bob - the fog was a surprise, but I'm a sucker for an arcing pantograph/catenery combination!

@HSTCalvin Greens all the way, except fot the flashing double yellow for Weaver Junction! Was well foggy, and bear in mind I was in South Africa 3 or 4 days before this in 38°c temperatures. This almost killed me!!
