Most of this month's photos are local but I've been to a few places I've not before so I thought it would make a bit of an interesting roundup!
The month's photography kicked off on the 3rd September for a couple of hours at my local, Ashford International. Nothing of particular note came through but I was pleased with a few of the photos.

A family day out to Sevenoaks didn't stop me from taking a shot or two at Sevenoaks on 6th September:

The 13th September was the day of the Clacton Thumper trip, dubbed "The Essex Coast Express". I just couldn't resist taking a shot of the 171 on the Marshlink in the glorious morning sunshine.

On the 25th September, I decided to make use of a new foot and cycle path which links the area I live in with Ashford town centre. Heading across the railway on a foot crossing, I came to a great spot and caught this shot of the Dungeness to Crewe nuclear flask train.

The 27th September was the day of Braunton's trip from Bristol Temple Meads to Canterbury West and although I hadn't paid attention and was expecting a diesel, I was pleasantly surprised by Braunton's performance through Pluckley. Needless to say, a few shots of modern traction couldn't be missed out on either.

Then an hour back at Ashford allowed for a couple of further shots to finish the day.
