B-b-but that's a tram! Don't they have proper trains in Nottinghamshire?

What's next? I'm totally lost here

How about following the route of a titled train, both old and modern photos accepted? We could start with an easy one, say 'The Flying Scotsman'.

 

Or if it's easier a sleeper train?

And here's the Lowland sleeper ready to depart Euston, December 2016.

 

And the next photo will have the Caledonian sleeper somewhere between here and Crewe.

Here's a pic of a rake inside their servicing shed at Wembley:

 

 

It is just inside SVRlad's criteria - but I'm sure there are ones that better meet it out there?

That looks remarkably similar to York from a sleeper train......................................

Already used my pic of the sleeper at Stafford earlier in this thread, so here is one at Wembley but on the mainline.

The route of a titled train is interesting, but might limit things a little, I'm really enjoying the intercontinental variation that the alphabet challenges give. How about train operating company names - long and common short versions accepted. So could have Arriva Trains Wales, British Rail etc. and subdivisions like Network SouthEast

 

Starting with an A

[EddieB]

A is for ... Achenseebahn (and Austria)

 

 

Having ascended the rack section, no. 2 has run around its carriages at Maurach and heads for the Achensee terminus.

 

B is for ...

[leopardml2341]

B is for British Rail and Birmingham New Street

How about something with three consecutive identical numbers next - for example 555 or 43332.

 

Cheers,

[phil_sutters]

Three consecutive identical numbers, three consecutive photos

 

 

How about three consecutive number in sequence e.g. 456

What happened to doing the alphabetic train operating companies? Cal.n broke the line lol. Here's a NZ Ja Class loco with 3 consecutive numbers as per Phils request.

Now to get us back onto the alphabet TOC's, H will be next.
