Rivercider Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 There are some lovely atmospheric shots on this thread. I do not remember the 81s-86s when shiny and new as I only ventured north once they were rail blue. Here are two loco hauled passenger services at Warrington Bank Quay, they may have been posted before, The driver of loco 86215 Joseph Chamberlain waits for station work to be completed at Warrington Bank Quay, 14/6/83 87010 King Arthur is calling at Warrington Bak Quay on a service for Euston, 17/7/84 cheers 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Blobrick Posted August 21, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 21, 2016 Stop it please... My keyboard simply cannot cope with any more dribble...! This is simply the best thread on RMweb, thanks so much to all the contributors. I need to get my scanner working as I have some shots from Ipswich lurking somewhere that will fit in. Andi Yes Andi, l totally agree, to much for a mere mortal to take! However l am enjoying this thread , my only wish is that someone would make a AL1, or 2 or 3 or even an AL4 to go with my Bachmann AL5, And of course there are those rumours about a possible 86 and or 87 in development in the wings somewhere?

RMweb Premium Claude_Dreyfus Posted August 21, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 21, 2016 My trips to Euston few and far between (the gap between my first and second visits was 22 years (!)), so as a consequence, I haven't got too many pictures. Here are a couple from my second visit - 5th December 2015. 90044 arrives with the up Caledonian sleeper. Unfortunately, I was on the wrong platform! At the opposite side of the station, 90048 rests at the buffers with another sleeper set. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Claude_Dreyfus Posted August 21, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 21, 2016 (edited) Something a little different? 86216 'Meteor' stands at Carlisle with a rake of regional railways coaches.

298 Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 now i really regret that all i had when i was younger was a "110" camera when I passed Shields Road in the early 80's. I regret not taking enough photos of the "mundane", as a young teenager in the late 1980s I used to have film rationed to me so the camera (and whatever we could do on a West Midlands Daytripper ticket) tended to be used on more unusual stuff. Anyway, for starters here are a few from 2004-5: 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
