I remember taking this photo and thinking to myself "why am I taking a photo of a boring Class 86".
Well, I had family on the train which just happened to be the 13.50 from Euston to Manchester via Stoke on Sunday 2nd December, 1984.
I suppose it's over thirty years ago now, and I do like the drivers casual action with a cup of tea in his hand as he approaches the cab of 86246 (ex E3149) for a job he's probably done endless times. I do remember the fact that the train was made up of all Mk1 stock....it also states this on the back of my photo !
If I see a Class 86 now, I stand back and look in admiration as some are still earning their keep, even though they are over fifty years old.
Hampi, school class
Hampi is a village in northern Karnataka, India. It is located within the ruins of the city of Vijayanagara, the former capital of the Vijayanagara Empire. Predating the city of Vijayanagara, it continues to be an important religious centre, housing the Virupaksha Temple, as well as several other monuments belonging to the old city. The ruins are a UNESCO World Heritage Site, listed as the Group of Monuments at Hampi.
Most of Vijayanagara lies on the south bank of the Tungabhadra River. The city was built around the religious center of the Virupaksha temple complex at Hampi.
The city of Vijayanagara was originally encompassed by seven lines of fortifications. These fortifications had a large number of bastions and gateways. The seventh and the innermost fortification enclosed the main city and is the best preserved. The extant monuments of Vijayanagara or Hampi can be divided into religious, civil and military buildings. While most of the monuments at Hampi are from the Vijayanagara period, a small proportion may be assigned to pre-Vijayanagara times. The Jain temples on Hemakuta hill, the two Devi shrines and some other structures in the Virupaksha temple complex predate the Vijanagara empire. The earliest amongst them, the Shaiva shrines with their stepped pyramidal vimanas or superstructures, date to the early Chalukyan period around ninth-tenth century AD.

Regina lost her foot in a lawn mower accident last year and now has a prosthetic foot. It didn't seem to set her back during her Aikido class this afternoon. She was an amazing little girl as you can see. She even throws fully grown men into the air!!
On my semi-long drive back to Gastonia from Lincolnton, I couldn't help but think how happy I was to have met her. It's been a pretty horrible day today but thinking of her reminds me that tomorrow always holds a chance for a better one.
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.

5th November, 1979. I've replaced the original posting with a wider view from a recent scan. The original print went to Peter Watts publishing and was included in his paperback 'British Rail class 20s' in 1980 and for the purposes of publishing was given a wee crop, understandable for some book formats. I give you the original negative with some tidying up to hide the deterioration of the intervening years!
I only alighted at this station twice but I have a fond memory of going to purchase a paper and the newsagent shop reeked of frying bacon, we couldn't leave without availing ourselves of a bacon buttie!
