      I trust they're wearing hi-vis on this dark night - unless perhaps they're following a very bright star?

    I was saying to Captain Kernow only the other day "there are other railways than the S&D", he wouldn't listen....

      Other railways are available.

      There may well be other railways, but they are not S&D railways.

    The church is possibly yes, but not the Bank of England and Norwich union building, surely?

    Not much change here, Post & Press and the IBM building, and Clerical Medical, the cars and that bus: The foot bridges: And the Severn Beach train.

    Quite a natty little miller there, I don't recognise the make, what is it? Need to fix it down of course, probably best after decorating the cellar....

    The building round Mary-le-Port church was still derelict, but intact today...

    A couple dated 28 May 1978.

    With the 1.7 engine? Now apparently that was fast (for the time).....

    Yes, so I've heard. I had a Marina a long time ago, a C**p ar!
  15. Tim V
    Final batch. Is that a Vauxhall Chevette and a fast back Marina in the picture?

    It's the same name Jerry, there is at least a slim connection?

    The other pictures from the same date taken on the station don't look much different to today, or have the canopies changed? Gosh, that's a very generous offer, I'll have a word with my software mad mates to see what they've got up their sleeves. Edit to include: Another picture of the old canal pumping station is at http://www.flickr.com/photos/olympus_yashica/5334276730/ station in background.

    Just scanned this picture of Penny Bridge. I didn't remember those buildings at the bottom of the slope to the water tower being there so late.

    Some more: More to follow.

    Finally got to the pictures of Warminster dated 24/04/1978, taken with my brand new Olympus OM1. More to follow. I did take some earlier pictures, but the negatives for those are lost.

    Please do not be tempted to crop to the train in this or any other picture. Train pictures are two a penny, I've see too many photos where something of interest has a train in the way. After all, it's just another GW mogul, but the rest of the picture is crammed with detail. I am reminded of a picture of an A4 in colour at some London shed, what is really interesting is the partly obscured ex PO wagon, with its livery clearly visible. Also the shot at Buildwas is of more interest because you stepped back.

    Question. What is the speed limit for cycles on pavements?

      the ticket becomes invalid. You can also be prosecuted for the offences of Dangerous cycling, Careless, and inconsiderate, cycling, and Cycling when under influence of drink or drugs! As for trying to enforce some of these though, it can be difficult when say your in a built up area with plenty of alleyways and in a car. But there are the legislations out there though. These might interest you:www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1988/52/part/I/crossheading/cycling-offences-and-cycle-racing

      A stick through the spokes should slow it down....

      So it's not 30, as some cyclists seem to think?

  25. Tim V
    Dave, a lot of boxes I've seen had a wooden walkway in front of the box, over the rodding. This enabled the signalman/other staff to safely cross this area. Looking good though!
