A photo I took in 1966 near Luddendenfoot. D58 on the Scotswood-Redbank ECS.

It was running slow again this morning and now it's gone completely. Could this be the begining of the end? I hope not.

1959 Morris Oxford seen at East Linton a few years ago. ECML in the background.

Yes, it just came on instantly for me 5 minutes ago!

Hi Sheff, I've been trying to get on for a couple of days now. I hope it's not gone bellyup!

You won't be trespassing, it is a public footpath that crosses the field. It's clearly marked on OS maps.

Anyone know what this is? Monday 3rd June, Crewe - York via Diggle, return via Calder Valley. https://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/service/gb-nr:U15086/2024-06-03/detailed https://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/service/gb-nr:U15089/2024-06-03/detailed

I have an Epson Perfection V600 scanner and have scanned my collection of about 2500 colour slides with it. The results are very good. Scan them as TIFF files though, not JPEG. They will be bigger files but you will have a bit more dynamic range to play with if you process them in Photoshop or...

The steam hauled 'Belfast Boat Express' departed Manchester Victoria at 20-55 not 21-05. Yes, there was, and still is, a '20-55 Club'!

4498 ran from Newcastle to Carlisle and back (twice I think) on June 17th 1972. Then on September 16th 1972, 19 ran from York to Scarborough and back.

Does anyone know if CR3 files from a Canon EOS R Mirrorless camera will open in Photoshop Elements 19 on Windows 10?

The '150 Anniversary Troops By Train' special ran from Liverpool to York on Wednesday, March 11th 1981. The locomotive on this tour was 850 'Lord Nelson'. 4472 'Flying Scotsman' was used on a Liverpool - Manchester and return special on Wednesday 12th March 1980.

Sigma do an 18-300mm. I used one when I had a Canon EOS 450D. It saved changing lenses and the quality was very good. It was compatible with Canon's EF-S mounts but not EF.

In the early episodes some of the tax discs are dated 1965 if you look carefully, and you have to be quick! Greengrass did use the 'Guinness Label trick', in the episode 'Man Hunt' in series 2.

There is talk of reinstating a regular passenger service between Clitheroe and Hellifield. A connection maybe? https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/6d583aa2a52b43808283ebf4c95a83e2?fbclid=IwAR0q0LPQ7Sxic5tb93ublnumRNSGpp-R2ouwOYJimUsW51yHxEqDpN8r7OM

Steve Leyland is a good friend of mine. I remember going with him to Blackpool on Easter Monday 1968. We rode to Blackpool South on the 12-44 from Preston which was hauled by 45149. We walked up the prom to Blackpool North and caught the Accrington train behind 45268. If I remember correctly it...

I don't know about the 21-25 Preston-Liverpool on August 3rd 1968, but the 20-50 Preston- Blackpool South was not officially arranged. It was a regular steam job that summer. I rode on it on several Saturday evenings during May, June and July after steam had finished on the 'Belfast Boat...

Well, I was there! A regular on the 'Belfast Boat Express' from Manchester Victoria to Heysham until the end of steam on that service in May 1968. The 12-44 and 20-50 Preston - Blackpool South, both steam jobs that summer, and was on the last service steam job of all, the 21-25 Preston to...
