An unidentified Liverpool Street to Clacton service pauses at Weeley station being worked by 360108. If the name Weeley seems vaguely familiar it may because it hosted a huge rock festival in 1971that was graced by such bands as Status Quo, T Rex, Mungo Jerry and King Crimson. It is estimated that this one-off festival, in the year when the Isle of Wight one was cancelled, that over one hundred thousand attended with many no doubt using the diminutive railway station.
