Guest CLARENCE Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 Saw these two at Shildon "Locomotion" Museum a month or so ago; The first is Furness Railway No.20, which, I understand, is the oldest working steam loco in Britain; And this Class 08 was about to tow it; Cheers, David Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peppercorn Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 I came across this photo of the local Bedford St Johns to Bletchley train, a couple of winters ago. Love the snowplough. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peppercorn Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 Just thought I'd add another electric, DB class 112 a couple of years ago, at or near Dormagen. Oh, and while I'm at it, one from Weimar two years ago. Just thought I'd add another electric, DB class 112 a couple of years ago, at or near Dormagen.

Peppercorn Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 I'm not sure if this is the right place for this photo, which shows an 8F hard at work in what could be termed a typical everyday scene on the steam railway.P*** poor photo, I'm afraid, but it does, I think, manage to convey the atmosphere of the time, which was late '63. Given today's working environment where PPE is - rightly - demanded, it's interesting to see the various workmen apparently wandering around in raincoats, any headgear being a cloth (or similar) hat Cliff 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bike2steam Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 It may be the best part of 50 years since I was last there, but it does look a bit like the Acton Road bridge at Willesden Junction on the left, with Willesden shed off-scene to the right, but I could be wrong.

Peppercorn Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 I think you're probably right, bike2steam, as I went up to Willesden a couple of times around then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had been going to ask why someone who calls himself "Peppercorn" posts so many photos of diesels and electrics ( though I do like that one captioned "Make way, make way, I'm comin' in....") ! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peppercorn Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Another poor photo - one of my first taken with a Kodak box on 120 (or was it 620?) film. This is Gannet at Kings Cross autumn of '63 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
