Drive Thameslink 700006 between London Blackfriars and Swanley on a misty autumnal morning.

Yet another nice drive on the Catford Loop with the 700, a train that has such excellent acceleration and braking as to almost blow me away! The only thing I can think of that somewhat lets this scenario down is the timetable: it isn't the tightest I've known!

The practices I employ on the approach to Ravensbourne, Shortlands and Swanley are not safe in any way, shape or form and I regret using them. Travelling 75+mph half a mile away from a red signal is never okay.
