NHN 3823 leaves the Pan Am at Rollinsford, NH with a short D7, bound for the pit in Ossipee. Sadly this would be the only shot of the New Hampshire Northcoast during my visit thanks to impatience on my part, and a surprise one way trip on a normally round trip day. I guess a revisit will be needed!
Well wow, just wow. I've been on a few photo charters in my time, but Wednesday evening is the closest I've been to my early '80s depot experiences. Firstly they kept us waiting, just like when we would sit on the RESL coach waiting while permits were checked, frustration mixed with excitement. Everything was in BR blue, from the hydraulics to the 45, to the 25 and the 08. That made it feel real. Oil, dirt, ash, grease, water everywhere. The modern railway is a clean environment, the giveaway to modern day photos, sometimes you can't beat a bit of muck to take you back to how things used to be. It was a pleasure to watch, to relax and soak up the atmosphere. And who needs sun for a decent pic, it was probably all the better for being without sun. Really well done to Liam Barnes and the ELR team for taking me back to good times. Thank you.

I have been really busy lately, and whatever free time I have seems to never be enough for Lego, and I end up tangled in other hobbies, like minecraft or my typewriters.
But now, since I was in vacation, I decided to check this one off my to-do list.
The Caterpillar D7 was one of the most common tracked tractors in service with the allied armies throughout WW2, and the British, on the follow-up to D-Day, decided to create a specialist vehicle that could remove beach obstacles. Intended to cope only with small arms fire, the D7 proved a versatile machine, performing it's intended role with ease and helping bogged-down vehicles in the beaches of the British/Canadian sector.
So, as usual, hope you like!
