Not my usual region to say the least! Shots at Weston near Crewe and shots at Chinley and Edale in the Peak District, including 37401. http://www.southernrailwaypics.co.uk/

Crikey! (time for a change I thought ;) )

Blimey, what settings were you using for that? Here is the train 30 odd mins later down the line nearing Exeter: http://www.southernrailwaypics.co.uk/2008/02.01.FebruaryRailImages/img_1261.html

Then submit something that seems like it would be a Z move! It's effectively going to be anything out of the ordinary apart from failed train drags isn't it. Since Sercos used to be 1Z14s etc but are now 1Q14s (even though they still are Zs - just easier to identify them as a 'Q') I'd allow...

Saw an amusing one at Pangbourne last Wednesday, a 5-car Turbo (3-car+2-car) pulled in to stop, driver stopped at the 3-car marker board, and so the last coach and a half were not in the platform. Driver (female may I note...) obviously didn't notice this and all doors were unlocked. Luckily...

Oh yeah, my mistake :oops: you knew what I meant though. ;)

Think he copied the criteria in from last weeks and just changed it to my words, obviously forgot to remove a bit as that makes no sense at all. ;-)

Shots from Great Cheverall of: - 66507 working 6Z28 Cardiff Pengam - Theale (return caught at Freshford) - 47237 working 5Z70 Laira - Old Oak - 60059 working a diverted 6B33 Theale - Margam http://www.southernrailwaypics.co.uk/2008/02.01.FebruaryRailImages/index.html

If anyone has not seen it yet: http://www.bachmann.co.uk/whatsnew.php4 Good to see them keeping up to date with the modern image range - CrossCountry livery going on the Voyager and 170. DRS 57011 too, and at last GBarbieRf 66725. That MPV also looks rather hellfire. The price does not though!

Shots from my Wednesday trip yesterday over in the Thames Valley. Visited Purley on Thames, Lower Basildon and Cholsey, although plan was to visit South Moreton first, but persistant fog over Didcot and that area scuppered any photing! Again, sunny all day (other than the fog over Didcot) -...

Shots from my trip over to Newport last Wednesday. Cracking weather all day and a load of freight to keep me entertained. http://www.southernrailwaypics.co.uk/2008/02.06.Newport/index.html Comments welcome.

Thank you guys, Yes - that is exactly how I got there. There is a cheeky footpath which saves a lot of time because otherwise you have to go out of Westbury to get there by road!

http://www.southernrailwaypics.co.uk/2008/01.30.Westbury/index.html An impulsive trip to Westbury, with clear blue skies for most of the day, various stone workings, and 57005 running to Yeovil.

Are you sure you are not mistaking a 180 for something else? This is a 180: The only thing remotely similar would be a refurbished 158. Other than that you need to get your eyes tested mate because a 180 has never worked down to Barnstaple, I doubt they're even cleared by NR! PS. please...

Thanks for the comments guys. :smile: Mintona, Lower Milcott is about 1/2 a mile to the north of Cowley Bridge, if you know where that is. Basically where the Barnstaple branch diverges from the mainline. It was a shot I stumbled across by complete luck whilst in transit to Rewe, and...
