Reading day 2

Last Saturday was the big day of my Reading trip, a full day on the railways armed with a rover ticket! Unfortunately, my carefully made and timed plan fell apart immediately as the line from Newbury to Bedwyn was blocked due to flooding but i quickly adapted and i managed to visit eleven new stations (mostly in Berkshire but a couple also in Hampshire). This is most a record for me for a single day! I also visited the lovely Kennet & Avon Canal in both Woolhampton and Aldermaston. I really enjoyed my trip and certainly will be returning to Reading in future years.
