Updated Author's Choice: 1976 - A Western in Devon
Posted by DjI
Having had a wonderful weekend in Devon at the end of June, during which I photographed 'Western Champion' on the famous sea wall, it seemed appropriate to make the latest 'Authors Choice' picture a '1000'. There is another parallel; currently summer 2010 is turning out to be a dry one like 1976. Whether there will be a drought and the appointment of a 'Minister of Rain', as there was that year, we will see!

Updated Author's Choice - Farewell 'Slammers'!
Posted by DjI
In tribute to the trains which were withdrawn from service last weekend, I have changed the 'Authors Choice' photo to show a 4CIG emu on the Lymington branch, taken in May 2009. Further pictures in the '2009 Pictures' gallery.

A new update with, firstly, some pictures from earlier in March that I forgot at the previous update (old age setting in!). These were taken at Princes Risborough and feature DBS liveried 67018 and EWS 67002 as substitutes on WSMR and a new PW working on the Chiltern Line. The second batch of pictures were taken when I went out for a double headed oil train on the GW mainline. The final pictures were taken on a trip to Cheshire and include my first Class 70 shots and a GBRf working.

First update of '2010 Pictures' gallery since January. This probably reflects the lousy February weather. March has started better, and I have added shots of 'Princess Elizabeth', a Freightliner 66, and several SWT units, which were taken while I waited for a Class 73 hauled train that never turned up.

New category, Cornish Railways, added
Posted by DjI
I had 2 enjoyable holidays in Cornwall during 2009; in particular over Christmas. As I have a good selection of railway pictures from Cornwall over many years, I decided to create a gallery illustrating the, often, unique railway scene down there. There is a particular focus on the 1980s, with large logo 50s, red stripe 37s, and loco hauled trains to Newquay.

The RHTT (Railhead Treatment Trains, or leaf clearers) have provided some interest on the Chiltern Lines this autumn. This latest update has pictures of the new 66 hauled RHTT and the venerable Chiltern Railways DMU RHTT.

News came through that the first delivery train of LUL's new S Stock would be passing through Princes Risborough with 20189 and 20227 providing traction on 20 October 2009. As it would be after dark (23:30, in fact) I did some swotting up on night photography and RAW images in Kim Fulbrook's excellent book "A guide to digital railway photography". The result is the latest addition to the '2009 Pictures' gallery.

NEW SUB-CATEGORY!
Posted by DjI
The Buses side of the site has been neglected for a while, especially as I don't take too many bus photographs these days. However, I have added a new sub-category for Buses in Bucks & the Chilterns. I want it to reflect the bus scene of my local area; in particular the many changes that have taken place since I moved to the area in 1985, mainly due to privatisation. Photographs, which are all scans of transparencies, will be added over the coming days and weeks.

A couple of railtours in the locality over recent Saturdays; what a pity the weather didn't play ball. Still, I've included the pictures, which feature 37s and a 47. There's also a 66 on a departmental.

Latest Update 4 July 2009
Posted by DjI
Even though the long, sunny, evenings recently have been conducive to photography, they are not ideal for sitting in front of a PC, editing and uploading. Now things have cooled off a bit, this update has been prepared with new pictures (in the 2009 gallery) from 3 trips over the last 10 days or so.
