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.

Joined a Japanorama class by Timothy Buerger shooting products few weeks ago.
Studio is always a huge challenge for me because I love street photography and natural light...
I shoot with the light available, I try to predict and wait for a good moment to shoot, but setting the models and the lights is something that I certainly need to develop... I guess this class is a good start!
Here's my favourites...
A London bound train arrives at Swindon in 1990. An unremarkable picture, but for the front coach in the train which is the executive lounge conversion 40513
An unidentified class 442 'Wessex Electric' EMU comes into Poole station in May 1990.

I have been taking photos of Britain's railways for about 40 years. Taking this photo brought a new experience. A woman in a uniform asked me if I had permission to take photos here. I replied I didn't know I needed permission. She told me I was not allowed to take a picture. WTF? If I had gone lineside a mile up the track and photographed the same locomotive what's the difference? Anyway here it is, the picture I wasn't allowed to take.
My lego model of a British Railways Class 08 diesel shunter, in BR blue. It is 7 studs wide, and the central axle can slide left and right to ensure smooth running round curves.
50008 'Thunderer' weaves its way through the jungle of Gascoigne Wood Junction while working 5Z57 Derby Chaddesden Sidings-Gascoigne Wood. 23/10/2022
The last time that I photographed 57304 was last month when it still had its 'Gordon Tracy' nameplate, but it is pictured here at Newcastle Central on March 13th 2012, on 'Thunderbird' duty for the night-time Pendolino trials.
A class 144 unit leads an eight car empty stock train formed of three 144 and one 142 units through Leeds station heading for Neville Hill depot after the morning rush hour.

The Nickel-class corvette is the smallest ship in the Federal Navy. Casian Dockyards designed and built these ships when asked by the Naval Procurement Board for a cheap patrol airship. The Nickel is named so because they cost about as much to build. They are incredibly simple to build and maintain. They are very fast, but are restricted to calm-weather conditions because of their size.
All versions of the Nickel class have a deck gun mounted frontally, but some versions also have aerial torpedo launchers on the bow to give them a chance against heavier opponents. In recognition that the type is extremely vulnerable, the Nickel class has a high amount of Mechanicum gear inside, lowering crew requirements.
During the Blighting, they were very useful in evacuating refugees and military personnel. However, during the Great Scouring, they suffered horrendous losses, mostly to Feral Behemoths. The few that were left were barely reinforced by replacements when the Continental War started, leading to further losses. The enormous casualty figures lead to a change in policy as to the use of the Nickel-class corvettes. Subsequently, they were never to be used in a frontline combat role and wold instead be relegated to patrol and policing duties.
Although some were sold to foreign nations and the type has seen some success outside of the Federal Republic of Casia, it is not generally considered a very good ship. If the best one can say of a ship is how fast it can run away from trouble, maybe it shouldn't be looking for trouble in the first place.
The Casian Dockyards are just barely kept afloat by orders of this ship, but they need to quickly design a newer, better ship if they are to succeed in the cutthroat world of airship building.

For a couple of years I was secretary to the National Association of Road Transport Museums which held quarterly meetings at its members' sites. Early 86 was the turn of West Yorkshire's embryonic Transperience team. Travel was to Doncaster first.
Gave my first class on Thursday and Friday. Cindi came up on the train to learn the "Way of Rocks". And Suzie had an idea of a glass on glass she wanted to do. So the Party was on!~!!!
We had a lot of fun. Hope they felt like they learned something!~!!!!
We first went rock shopping at the local hard-scape lot. She just had to have that little rock.
I also had Cindi bring something to grout. So on Friday we did an Epoxy Grouting session.
An unidentified Class 25 heads towards Northwich during the winter of 1981-82. Amazing to think that heavy trains like these were entrusted to a single Type 2.
The Class of 2014 climbed the risers on the Plain on Thursday, April 10, 2014 for their class photo. Always a fun event to capture. The Class photo will be available from PanFoto in the very near future.
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.
