As much as I love and indeed buy lots of Matchbox and Hot Wheels models sometimes you can't help but feel a bit short changed when you compare them to the products of Majorette. Just look at this stunning Mercedes-Benz GL-Class, it is weighty and solid and has features you just won't find together on your average mainline Mattel product. It has fabulous detailing at the front and rear with clear plastic headlamps, an accurate interior and an opening rear door and all this for just one pound! Currently available at this price at Morrisons stores who have very recently updated their Majorette range. If you want to pay double this price then Tesco offer this exact model in fancier packaging. Mint and boxed.
A class 105 arrives at Wainfleet on the 1345 Skegness - Grantham (despite the destination blind!) on 9 August 1986.
British Rail Class 374 25kV AC 1.5/3kV DC dual voltage 16 car Electric Multiple Unit (EMU) 374008 (physically numbered as 4008) as operated by Eurostar by the buffers at St. Pancras International Station in London (UK).
The Class 374 Eurostar units are built by Siemens AG, are part of the Velaro high speed train family and are also known as the Eurostar e320.
These Class 374 units were introduced into service from November 2015 and run alongside (for now) the much older Class 373's along the HS1 (High Speed 1) line with 'Eurostar' services towards and through the Channel tunnel into Europe.

Note the ungainly air conditioning units on top of the train and the far more agreeable Victorian architecture that dates back to 1868. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St_Pancras_railway_station

Occasionally a stranger would end up working the Exeter Paignton locals and get locked into the diagram for a week or two until its home depot kicked up enough and found a way of getting it home.
This happened to 31405, she only stayed around for a few days but with its distinctive white stripe this Finsbury Park celebrity was quite popular. I managed this shot of her working the 1608 Exeter to Paignton.
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.
Given that the M420 has became the most common unit on my roster a little variety was necessary. With this in mind 3538 was taken out of service and modified to replicate one of the earlier units from the MR20a class. The last few members of this class share the same style of handrails that were used on later models so that eliminated one job. I did have to fabricate a new longer fuel tank though as well as changing the access door on the engineers side of the cab. On the earlier units this was one large door instead of the two piece style of later units.

This set of coaches were repainted and tarted up special like for the Manchester Pullman. Here we see the set departing Crewe bound for Manchester behind a Class 86.
The stock included carriage numbers 583, 506, 553, 503, 549, 586.
Train 390 making its way north between Te Awamutu and Ngaroto, hauled by a pair of International Orange- liveried Brush Class 30/EF locomotives. The lead loco is the pioneer EF and its 30year-old paintwork is now somewhat faded.
Of the 22 locomotives deliverd for the NIMT electrification scheme, 17 remain in service with Kiwi Rail. However a recent announcement that electric traction is to be withdrawn over the next 2 years to be replaced by diesel locomotives, will see the numbers of serviceable EFs dwindle.

A Class 50 and stock stabled at Newquay, with some sort of electrical charging going on. Looks like 'Agincourt'? It's a refurbished one in standard BR livery which narrows it down a bit.
Class 319 319381 is seen here terminating at Luton in August 2006. It carries the old Thameslink colours with First Capital Connect stickers over the Thameslink names.
