 | 3rd Sep 2009 | Blackpool Trams
A day trip to Blackpool, to do the Fleetwood and Starr Gate circuit, before they close, catching the 05:47 from Euston. Not the best of days to go photographing them, dull, stormy with 50 MPH gust's, still the sun did appear for a little while!! All photo's taken on 03rd Sept unless otherwise stated.

 | 7th Jun 2008 | Gloucestershire & Warwickshire Railway
After the Long Marston event, we visited the Glous & Warks railway. With Bob's excellent communication skills and determination, we were given a guided tour of the shed at Toddington (which is off limits at the moment) the day was finally rounded off with a trip to Cheltenham race course and back behind 850 'Lord Nelson'. With thanks to Dave Skelton for doing all the driving.

to 15th May 2007 | Rugby/Barnetby
A two day trip joining Ray on his East Mids Rover. Rugby was bloomin cold and a fatality at MKC didn't help, but it picked up in the afternoon. Barnetby was disappointing, with only 4 "Tugs" out & about in my time there.

Welcome to my fotopic site. Within the gallery you will find a selection photo's, from diesel gala's to days out and about. All photo's were taken using a Nikon coolpix 3100 or S200 (one of these small camera's is always in my work bag), or the Canon EOS350D. Most shots are from 2004 onwards. If you have a spare minute or three, please have a look through my collection of photos, thank you.
