Peppercorn Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Not good photos, but of their time, taken on a cheapie firm's camera (they didn't believe in paying much for anything, including, as I recall, salaries.) Class 31 passing through Wallsall station and taken from adjacent building (on which I was carrying out an engineering survey) Marks out of ten for weathering? About 6 wouldn't you say - I thought British Rail was better at it than this... Cliff 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bike2steam Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 A like, not for the 'paraffin can', but the location, a station I spent many happy spells watching trains as a kid in the late 50's, and early 60's, how things have changed ????

Peppercorn Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 (edited) As the media -and especially the BBC - have told us many, many, many, many times over the last few days - its th 50th anniversary of Sir Winston Churchill's funeral, so we ought perhaps on this day have a BB. This photo is quite funereal, with the BB looking like its leading a cavalcade of the dead toward their doom.

Peppercorn Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Thank you. I can tell you though, you've got exactly the same engine in your picture, as I have in mine. How interesting, Matt, thanks for that info. Its very encouraging, too, to see what was a near-rusting hulk back in service all nice and shiny, and a tribute to all those who restored her.

Powerhaul 70 Pey Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Freightliner Class 70 is held at a signal so it was an ideal opportunity to get some photos. The location is Slutchers Lane, Warrington with 70011 ready to depart for Stoke Gifford having unloaded at Fiddlers Ferry on Saturday 28th February 2015. And then sets off with some smoke as the power is applied. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
