Not originally planned as a spotting trip but I was staying in Watford and due to fly back to the Isle of Man from London City the next day and with perfect clear skies forecast I decided on an early start prior my flight to do some spotting.
I got the train into Euston followed by the underground and finally the DLR to London City. I stayed on past the airport to the King Edward V stop where it was a 10 min walk to the Bascule bridge (Beside the 27 final approach, near to the Tereza Joanne restaurant). You can get good photos both arrivals and departures from here when 27 is in use.
