RMweb Gold 4630 Posted April 7, 2017 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 7, 2017 Caledonian Sleeper stock being serviced at Fort William, 30th August 2016 ...and the next photo will show some complex mainline switches and crossings, without a train in view. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold The Stationmaster Posted April 7, 2017 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 7, 2017 (edited) Complex enough for you? And the next picture will show an ordinary service passenger train hauled by a Stanier Princess Coronation ('Duchess') on the WCML pre-electrification.

RMweb Gold The Stationmaster Posted April 7, 2017 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 7, 2017 No takers - right here you go there. 46235 in the gloomy interior of the 'old' Euston back in 1963. And surely someone else was around taking pics of 'semis' back then? So let's try again - a BR type 4 diesel in original condition and livery (preferable without a yellow panel but they are acceptable - just ) on a Class 1 train, any Region, any type of Type 4. Pilot scheme designs would be a real prize! 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold phil_sutters Posted April 7, 2017 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 7, 2017 (edited) How about Majestic two months old - I think How about a train on an English narrow gauge railway?

(Woops that a type 2) "NEXT" Prototype locomotive being scraped. Terry. Do you mean a real life-sized loco, as opposed to a model, being scrapped or something like the Southern Leader class experimental loco, or the first in a class of locos - the prototype for that class?

devonseasider Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 Are we accepting Terry's Brush 2, even though it's not a type 4, or Phil's Warship? In other words, am I looking for a loco being scrapped or for a narrow gauge train? Decisions, decisions . . . . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stationmaster as asked for a Type 4 and Terry posted a Brush 2 which as he as said is the incorrect answer. Phil's Type 4 warship is correct. The next photograph required is a train on an English narrow gauge railway Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
EddieB Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 Well this is a crop from a poor Instamatic shot of Warship "Ark Royal" (which was a sort of prototype in both senses) awaiting its fate at Woodham Bros, Barry in 1974. When I re-visited with a rather better camera a few years later, I managed to miss photographing both the diesels that were still present - but scrapped shortly afterward. (I was also going to include a picture of the Southend Pier Railway as representing English narrow gauge, but I'm still having problems scanning slides and my negatives are on 120 film, which is also a bit awkward) - and I think that has already appeared once in this thread. I'm getting slightly bemused - is the aim to find a difficult subject almost nobody else has - or something that keeps the field wide for all comers? I've generally tried to steer towards the latter, but this time I'm going to be a bit meaner: the next one will be a standard gauge steam locomotive (working, pre-preservation of course), with a wheel arrangement not found on the mainline railways of Britain...

devonseasider Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 Here's "River Esk" on a typical lakeland day in early September 2008. Ravenglass & Eskdale Railway. Next, especially for Terry, a diesel being scrapped. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've generally tried to steer towards the latter, .. The idea is to keep the field as wide as possible so that many of us can participate here in the U.K. and abroad. If the subjects required become difficult (as it appears to becoming) many will become disenchanted and not participate. It is intended to be a light-hearted type of quiz. Let's keep it that way. Then we can all take part. I hope EddieB will not be offended by me overruling him by saying The next one is A WILDCARD that is in colour Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BG John Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 Cold rather than wild, and not much colour! A Western on the Berks & Hants, somewhere near Thatcham I think, on Sunday 4th April 1976. Next, a Western taken in nicer weather! 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
