Class 74 electro-diesel locomotive No. 74003 eases onto 4TC unit No. 412 at Romsey. This was one of the scheduled stops on the "Class 74 Farewell" railtour, which ran from Waterloo and visited Southampton, Lymington and Bournemouth, among other places, on Saturday 3rd December 1977. Until I checked the entry for this event on the excellent Six Bells Junction web site, I had absolutely no recollection that 74003 experienced difficulties with her diesel engine at Romsey, causing the railtour to be delayed for about an hour. I'm not sure whether the view above was before or after the engine incident. For some other superb shots of this special train, see 54A South Dock's photostream:
Class 119 L579 made up of 51065,59424 & 51103 Draws into Tonbridge with the 10:51 from Reigate, 18th April 1990 (Tonbridge Album Scan 9).
I normally steer clear of purchasing prints, however I came across a whole album of original Tonbridge shots. I collect old Tonbridge Slides / Negs so thought these were to good to let go, some very nice shots in there too. I will upload them all as and when I have time to scan them, probably around 50 in total. Unfortunately I can only assume the original negatives have since long been destroyed...
I hope they are of interest...

I have started to collect a number of original slides (with copyright) 'most' of which probably haven’t been seen before. Some come with image information and some don't. Please feel free to leave a comment if you know locations, dates, numbers etc, it would be much appreciated. I have uploaded these at a low resolution, please don't copy / download without my prior permission.
I only collect slides on the understanding that the full copyright transfers over to me. If you believe there to be a copyright issue please drop me an email.
40122 heads back to Carlisle with an evening freight, near St Helens, Flimby in early 1984 as twilight gathers over the Solway. It was the twilight of the class 40s too, although 40122 - as a celebrity - would be kept going for another four years, by this time the loveable dinosaurs were effectively finished.
No m'hagues mai arrivat a imaginar que podria trobar una class66 aqui a dalt. Imagino que debia estar per si de cas havia de fer auxili
An unidentified Class 40 heads a northbound freight, probably rock salt in antiquated wagons, passing Waitby.
Information received suggests that the loco is 40 025 formerly named "Lusitania" and the train may be 6S52 Winsford - Mossend/Inverness with rock salt for the coming winter.

Dating from 1952 and originally numbered 13005 and then D3005, Class 08 08002 was pictured on Doncaster MPD on October 16th 1977. It had been withdrawn the previous month and was eventually scrapped at Swindon Works during January 1978. It carries a DR shed sticker but in 1955 it was allocated to 67C Ayr.

The mass of bracken takes something of an effort to wade through but the colouring is spectacular at this time of year.
