for anyone interested, I also did a video of the trip. Thumbnail (if it shows) is a POS. Don't let it put you off... never mind, I can't post youtube links?

Was surprised a few weeks back when I was around J10 of the M1 to see that there are still SOX catenary lanterns there, thought they were long gone!
