Has anyone got photos of 50007 on the Colas steel train to Boston Docks last Saturday?

I got a photo, but as it's on a film camera, I'll have to get it developed first (First week in June) then I'll post here.

 

BTW she sounded beautiful.

Holy smokes, would you look at that!

Any idea what one was on the left, looks like 16 or 18??

Here's a shot of 50011 on an excursion at Moira (between Coalville and Burton-on-Trent) having visited the Coalville open day on 5 June 1983.

I was on that!

 

We got delayed between Toton and Coalville so i counted how many rivets there were on the side and end of a HAA hopper, I cant remember how many there were but it was quite a few.

Here are two more of mine. On my Flickr site I have got most of them in an album entitled 'The Fifty 50s'.

 

From one of my summer saturday visits to south Devon

The Lion Roars

50027 Lion makes a spirited, if smoky, departure from Paignton with the 16.13 (SO) service to Oxford, 31/7/82

 

And one from my local footbridge in Weston-super-Mare.

There were a couple of passenger services that were sometimes used for test runs for locos off repair at Bath Road, the 08.20 Bristol - Taunton was one of them.

50019 Ramilies leads 45002 under the Exeter Road footbridge in Weston at the head of the 08.20 Bristol Temple Meads - Taunton service, 28/4/80.
