Now they say that imitation is the best from of flattery, and so I tried a few of the Photomerge pictures that have been seen elsewhere. This is Tornado at Purton in the Severn Estuary (finished file is 11800 pixels wide!!!

Managed to catch 1M46 on Sun 31st May formed of 2x170 instead of the usual Voyager and diverted via Crewe to boot. The train is seen at Heamies Farm

Hope everyone else has enjoyed the weather too, sorry it's gone bad today I had a day off work!

nice shots there mumrar, odd to see a doubled up 170, at Tamworth last Thursday i saw a 3 car 17 joined up with a 2 car 170 and the driver STILL stopped at the 3/4 car marker, this was followed by a set where the doors didnt close and it had to be stopped where we couldnt get a shot of the 66 coming around the corner

There are two diagrams which are booked to be a pair of 170s and these run on the Nottingham Cardiff corridor. I saw the 5-car in question, unusual but it can happen. Too bad about getting bowled, although it was only a shed!
