The morning was spent photographing trains on the GWML including class 59 on an empty stone train and pair of 37s on a rail tour to Paignton.

Then after lunch onto the WSR for a ride behind newly arrived no.7802 Bradley Manor and pannier tank 7752. Plenty of diesels on shed including a class 25.

Back to the mainline early evening to see the returning class 37 rail tour.

Next weekend I will be attending the Torbay Airshow.

I didn’t realise that 25185 had received full yellow ends since I last saw it.
I’m looking forward to a run behind it at the gala in June. Are you going Anthony?

Torbay airshow this weekend, going by rail on Sunday, finally chance to bash the GWR castle class short sets HSTs.

Saturday I may go to the airport and see the red arrows take off, hopefully other planes from airshow will be there. Also Saturday, hopefully I’d be able to see the class 67 hauled Belmond dining train on its way to Bath Spa.

having seen the weather today I stayed home and made plans for holiday. Somewhere sunny ☀️ but also with trains. Looking at Malaga for few days.

Has anyone been on the rails there?

Your photo of the pair of hymeks is a wonderful thing.
Fair play to the DTG for getting D7018 running again.

Yeah I’m really pleased with them. Luckily the rain stated when I got back in the car.

Bargain boot sale find @£6 for both. I do love intercity livery.


This past week I’ve not felt like doing much photography or actually going anywhere,
I didn’t even leave the house to Photograph the 37s or steam down the mainline this weekend.

It may be time to hang up the camera if not sell it. Hoping the forthcoming airshow season will change my mind.

E7DD7FA9-9B84-40E4-A182-036033240753.jpeg Went out to photograph Tornado on todays railtour, as was fed up painting the house. Needed a reason to get out the house.

Firstly I went on the footbridge at the site of the old Norton Fitzwarren Junction Station. Then to Taunton Station to see it leave after it’s water stop. Typical a a late running IET got in the way of any good photo opportunities. Did get to see two short set HSTS so worth going out.
