RMweb Premium TrevorP1 Posted November 4, 2020 RMweb Premium Share Posted November 4, 2020 I like the bottom photo with the van. Very effective. I genuinely did a double take, thinking it was the real thing. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a selection of carriages below on the approaches to the East station as the train passes over the viaduct. There are also scenes at Hitchin, Woodwalton, Helpston, Lolham. No prizes for Welwyn!!!! The curious little snippet is of GNR Somersaults signals with either an ex GER D13 or D14 passing on the opposite. A lovely sight. Thank you for that, Paul. We watched it through last Friday and I hadn't had chance to go back to it since. We thought that sequence was moving south from Peterborough, but I wouldn't have spotted the smaller stations. Hitchin and Welwyn were easy enough and we think the NER 4-4-0 and clerestories may be at Selby. I have my work cut out identifying all the horseboxes in that one train although there are a fair few GN examples and what we think is a GE right at the rear. Weeks of watching and researching to come. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The views seem to be from the back of a train. There is one section where the train enters a small station on the wrong line in the wrong direction. The signals on the adjacent line reinforce my thoughts. Paul I've had another look at it, and I'm still not sure what is going on. The PN bit cuts out just as the train is approaching points, but they seem to be set for the route down to East. The film then carries on down the main line though. Im sure I have seen Huntingdon, and then a sequence that looks like the Ouse at Offord, and further on a signal box name that seems to be Cadwell. Then we have Hitchin and Digswell, which would be logical. In between though it goes north from PN, and in addition to Helpston I think there is Walton on that stretch of line too. Some other bits look familiar, but I can't put a name to them. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Popular Post great northern Posted November 5, 2020 Author RMweb Premium Popular Post Share Posted November 5, 2020 (edited) I'm still pondering over what we could do to lighten the mood during lockdown, but I did take note of those who said they enjoy pictures of carriages. The 6.10 Down Friday only is a West Riding relief, and features nearly the same formation as the Catterick leave train. It is also shown as working out of KX quite early the following morning, another summer Saturday only job. Here it is.

RMweb Gold Oldddudders Posted November 6, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted November 6, 2020 The Gresley FK looks simply stunning. Not my prototype, of course, but a beautiful model of a most attractive vehicle. If you wish to home in on models of this quality, who could possibly object? 11 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Popular Post great northern Posted November 7, 2020 Author RMweb Premium Popular Post Share Posted November 7, 2020 I have had a day of delightful idleness, Lincoln City won 6-2, and an event across the pond cheered me no end. While the 6.20 Down Leeds waits, the 5.33 from that City pulls in. Woolwinder is in charge, and adds to the smoke under the roof. 33 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
