Are you a rail photographer??

Hi Caddylars, it's nice to see that families and trains can mix. Here is my daughter Charlotte a few years ago with the Hogwarts loco.

and here is a similar loco in Scarborough. Charlotte is now nearly 14 and will not sit on this loco for her photo taking.

Since I took this picture ALL the Harry Potter stickers have been carefully removed!

where is that? It looks so familiar. is it around pittsburgh?

Its actually Bethlehem, PA on the eastern side of the state. the furnaces in the background are all from the now defunct Bethlehem Steel plant that used to be there.
 
My son, Craig has been out with me photographing the Scarborough Spa and has asked me to put links to his videos. He has only just started shooting these, so he looks forward to any comments!

Something for everyone, I hope, including the all yellow NMT

One thing I noticed with those video`s John (and Craig :))

Don`t you just hate "welded" rail without that old "clickety click", sound tracks were much better with fishplates. ;)
 
@overmars

It was only to promote the fact it had been made greener!

Are c2c to go in the franchising?


what about 31289 then?

the only one in that colour, and ever painted in it for that matter
 
The Dalesman

Just a few from me taken on this Sundays' Dalesman train from Hellifield to Carlisle and back (via the Settle - Carlisle line). This was the last of the summer Dalesmen this year, but more are planned for next year. Hope you can travel on one!

A true gentleman of the Iron Road!

Some from me from yesterday

A class 360 departs my local (Romford) for Clacton.
http://christopherrose.fotopic.net/p44537685.html

A class 315 departs my local for Gidea Park.
http://christopherrose.fotopic.net/p44537686.html

As we arrive into Upminster the 321 and D stock had a race as can be seen by this shot.
http://christopherrose.fotopic.net/p44537687.html

Now at Upminster we get on a 357 for our journey to the capital.
http://christopherrose.fotopic.net/p44537688.html

I don't like taking photos on the underground so my next one will be from a train passing a 66 but i can tell you I went form Fenchurch St round to Tower Hill where I got a D stock all the way round to Ealing Broadway where I got a 165 Non-Stop to Paddington

As we past Acton Yards I took this shot of a 66
http://christopherrose.fotopic.net/p44537692.html

Now at Paddington I took a picture of one of my favorite trains a class 180 operated by FGW (Forever Getting Worse ;) )
