Drop me a PM and I will send you what I've got ;)

I've been out and busy already this morning! Trying to beat the mist was interesting but it didn't hamper too much in the end. :) Thanks to a 225 on an 'up' train I got two shots of the Ditton 'liner from both platforms at Northallerton as it was checked... On the approach...

I've got 7 in the space of time I'm reckoning on being there :) Not all will run but it's half decent for photos like

The S&C is not too far away from home but is a line that I rarely visit to photograph. As I am likely to be heading south later this year I have decided that it is time I 'mopped up' a few locations that I really should have done some time ago :) Arten Gill is one of them, its a good shot and...

Despite being from the English side of the border it has become a bit of a tradition for me and a few mates to head north once or twice a year, and Prestonpans normally features in our plans! No exception this year, we've generally found the freight to be good, the location to be quiet and the...

Many thanks :) OLE doesn't really suit a steam shot but it's out of the way here...as it says in the caption, this is the work of my partner-in-crime who hasn't made an appearance online in a while!! Cheers for the other comments, glad you like the photos!

70013 out to play again today on the ECML offering another chance for a shot! http://www.flickr.com/photos/clagmonsterrail/6989747065/in/photostream Comments welcome :)

Just over a year after I got myself back online with a Flickr account and its still going strong, thanks to all the views :) The first new shot uploaded was of 2Q66, Heaton to RTC worked by 31106. Latest upload is again 31106 on load 2 again, the same coaches in fact!! This time the set was seen...

It would be 31106...believe it worked up from RTC as 0Z31

The main event...70013 steams north through Northallerton Castle Hills http://www.flickr.com/photos/clagmonsterrail/6969128233/in/photostream/ 66730 on a Tyne Dock coal train http://www.flickr.com/photos/clagmonsterrail/6823002036/in/photostream/

47580 working 0Z82 to York NRM

An early finish today meant I fancied a bike ride to clear the last of my US jet lag. Checked my watch and decided I had time to get the Wilton 'liner and duly set off for Brompton, completing the shot. 66533 performing the honours: http://www.flickr.com/photos/clagmonsterrail/6967303801/ I...

Went out for 2Z08, but was cancelled due to 950001 being re-routed to RTC. Instead got 66542 on a first sunny shot of 'L79 instead :) It's good to be back at the UK!! http://www.flickr.com/photos/clagmonsterrail/6816374788/in/photostream

That set was conducted by trained staff, there was a clearance issue but as far as I am aware that has been resolved. Sets don't work the route due to short platforms and lack of training.

Bradfords are solidly 180s, crew not fully trained to work HSTs north of Doncaster. Not sure about the buffet problem, as I'm in the US. The TF issue ma be particularly bad in one set due to coaches being away on refresh. 10min delay could have been worse as well!! :)

I'm about to add Terminal 3 (Heathrow) and Washington Dulles to my list ;) Jet out to DC in the early hours...so time will tell!! I will be sure to report back :p

An interesting idea that I've already considered ;) I may give it a try, although a running line, connecting to my mainline station is still my main aim, excuse for a turntable, mainline connection and run round loop. Gives the chance for my larger preserved locos to work 'properly' on load 3 or...

66238 caught at Northallerton on 1Z66 to Seal Sands, as well as other North East freight branches, including some fairly slow track!! Here, however, the train is seen tramping north on the main having been held for time at Longlands Jn...

Another evening freight session at Northallerton this evening produced these two... 4M51 with 66433 http://www.flickr.com/photos/clagmonsterrail/6780180978/in/photostream 4S07 with 66415 http://www.flickr.com/photos/clagmonsterrail/6926294561/in/photostream Comments welcome :)

Making to most of the light(er) night for a sneaky shot of 6D43 before jetting off to DC at the weekend ;) 60074 provided train power, looking rather smart on a shortened train. http://www.flickr.com/photos/clagmonsterrail/6923786595/
