21st November 2018. On a TimeLine Photo Charter on the North Norfolk Railway. This was my first ever visit to the Poppy Line and it took like forever to get there. I remember arriving at Sherringham on the train at 10.00pm and everyone had gone home as all the lights were turned off. Luckily my accommadation was not too far from the station.
The next day, I met up with all the other photographers for our day out on the NNR. We where not too far out from Sherringham [near the Golf Club I believe]. As GNR N2 0-6-2T No.1744 does a run past with the Quad Art Set of coaches.

The Hornet-class interceptor is designed for use in rapid strikes. The pilots often work together to swarm a small group of enemy fighters, using their light cannons to bring down a target's shield (Often in less than a second with a large swarm) and then hitting it with their large gun until it explodes. The fighter is also capable of defending itself on it's own in a dogfight, and it's precision targeting computer and heavy gun make it useful for bombing attacks.

Class 47 no 47975 hauls 323201 through Rugby on 18 February 1993. I think this was the first time I had seen a Class 323 and I'm not sure now what this working was, or where the unit was heading. According to Wikipedia the first 323 "finally entered revenue-earning service on 7 February 1994."
47975 was originally D1723, built by Brush Traction in 1964. It was allocated 47132, but this number was never carried and it was renumbered to 47540 in October 1974. It was renumbered in the Departmental series as 47975 between August 1990 and December 1995, when it reverted to 47540. It was withdrawn in May 1998 and was, for a while, preserved at the Wensleydale Railway, but was scrapped at TJ Thomson of Stockton in April 2016.

CFL Class 2200 1,500kV dc/25kV ac overhead 3-car articulated double deck emu No.2219 at Luxembourg city station, 2 May 2018. Alstom built 22 sets of these Coradia Duplex units in 2004-06 and 2009-10; one (No.2207) was partially destroyed in a crash and rebuilt with a new nunber - No.2223. They are similar to SNCF's Z24500 class.
Preserved Brush Type 2 Class 31 A1A-A1A diesel locomotive 31438 at North Weald Station on the heritage Epping Ongar Railway (EOR) in Essex (UK).
31438 was built by Brush at the Falcon Works Loughborough and entered service as British Railways D5557 on October 15th 1959 with withdrawal as British Rail 31438 in September 1995.
'A1A-A1A' means there are two bogies under the locomotive. Each bogie has two powered axles and one freewheeling axle. In A1A bogies the idle axle is alway the centre axle connected wheels.
Not to be confused with the similar looking 6 wheeled Co-Co bogies which all the axles are driven.
Absolutely adore Class 31's. Cut my young trainspotting teeth spotting these at Chelmsford station on the Great Eastern Main Line in the late 1970s.
