In its original BR Provincial services livery with 'Sprinter' logo and branding, Class 150/2 150251 was passing Penwortham Way on Farington Moss with the 13.09 Preston to Ormskirk service on October 25th 1987. The unit was one of the odd numbered 150/2's that went new from BREL York to Newton Heath depot. These days, 150251 earns its keep for Transport for Wales (TfW).

From one of Nick's many unmarked prints and slides. Cheers mate ! This is probably 1977 as he seems to have a few Southern Railway signal box photos around Wimbledon and Richmond from that year. This looks like it's taken from a train between Clapham Junction and Queenstown Road Battersea from my hazy memory. I can't ID the loco as I'm rather hamstrung with IT failures at the moment so have limited enhancing and lack of magnification. Hopefully top loco detective Steve Thomas will be a great help with a lot of Nick's unmarked photos. I'm currently managing to use an Epson App to scan photos on my smartphone then upload to Flickr. Not ideal but at least I can get some photos up and running with the Slidefest hopefully to come soon.

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.

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:
