To mark the withdrawal of the Class 501 units, the Southern Electric Group ran a farewell tour. Two of these three car units coupled together ran from Broad Street and covered their usual haunts of the North London Line and the DC line to Watford Junction. After a visit to North Woolwich, they then ventured highly unusually over some of the Southern Region. The train is seen here at Bromley North.

Exploring this abandoned classroom, I wanted to capture the poignant atmosphere of educational spaces frozen in time. The scattered furniture and graffiti tell stories of both past purpose and current abandonment.
Its just a gronk...but its so much more...its a gronk in Taunton shed at night, whilst waiting for the down sleepers, nearly always a pair of 50s. Gronk gone, shed gone but the sleepers still run with a class 57.

Explosives trains are not seen every day, more often than not being pathed during the 'wee small hours'. The 3F03 23:34 Fenny Compton (for Base Ammunition Depot Kineton) to Longtown Central Ammunition Depot was no exception, but its lengthy transit time allowed a photo in the Border City. The containerised explosive train (with barrier wagons marshalled at each end) is seen crossing the Eden river bridge with DB Schenker 66051 in charge on Tuesday 17 February 2015.

62005 is a K1 Class locomotive designed by A.H. Peppercorn, although the design is much older, being initiated by his predecessor, Edward Thompson. It was built by the North British Locomotive Co Ltd. (Works no. 26609) and entered service with British Railways in June 1949. It was the last of the K1 class in service; remaining in service until December 1967 when it was withdrawn, after which it served as an emergency boiler at the ICI North Tees Port Clarence works in early 1968 for six weeks.
In May 1969, it was acquired by a consortium of Viscount Garnock, Geoff Drury, Brian Hollingsworth and George Nissen, as a source of a spare boiler for the preserved K4 (61994 The Great Marquess) and was moved to Leeds Neville Hill depot and stored for a number of years.
The boiler was not needed for the K4, so 62005 was donated to the North Eastern Locomotive Preservation Group (NELPQ) in 1972 and was delivered to BR’s Thornaby Depot in June of that year. The locomotive was overhauled at Thornaby Depot by NELPG volunteers over a two year period and was painted in a fully lined out LNER green livery. The restored locomotive was moved to the North Yorkshire Moors Railway in May 1974 and went into traffic there the following month.
In 1975 it appeared at the S&D 150 celebrations at Shildon.
In June 1987 it began its long association with the West Highland line from Fort William to Mallaig and carried the name "Lord of the Isles" for a time.
Since then it has tended to be based on the North Yorkshire Moors Railway and has regularly performed on the West Highland Railway in the summer.

Lucy chose this fabric when it was first released, and also chose the pattern. Finally got around to making it up for her!

Loadhaul liveried Class 66 60038. The engine originally carried the name Bidean Nam Bian. The Class 37 to the right is 37515
Ref 22-03
Classed as a light railway rather than a tram. The Trogenbahn ran from St Gallen to Trogen.
It has since been upgraded with new stock after my shot here in 2004 and has become one line of the St Gallen S Bahn.
Note the freight wagon attached to the train and the inlaid track.
In 2018 this metre gauge overland tramway and the Appenzell were joined together via a cross city route.
It is the steepest adhesion railway in Switzerland with a gradient of up to 8.0% and now forms part of the network of the Appenzell Railways (AB) and the St. Gallen S-Bahn.
