Just on Sky Sports News, sadly passed away today aged 72...Total Legend

Simply put, what is your main attraction to the 'Railway' scene? Mine is photgraphy of all British railways, be it infrastructure/rolling stock/disused lines

Looking at going from Penzance to Glasgow return, and then do all lines (Is there an all line Rover just for Scotland?), which would the best way to go, routes etc (would be via London I expect, no 9 hours+ on a vomit comet:evil:) Any help greatly received on this one...or would it just be...

Published in April 2012 'Rail Express', on Page 49... At Penzance (Longrock Depot) 17.2.2012

Pictured at Par yesterday, where they were stationed overnight, today (the 7th) they were due to work down to Burngullow, and return North tomorrow with stock, around 10am (details were passed on last night to me at Par). Hope this helps anyone interested in 'photing' it.

Now while it aint cheap, anyone else notice the best series seem to be on Sky1 these days? This last year for example, we've had great British TV in 'The Cafe', 'Mad Dogs' and currently 'Stella', modern TV, like it or not, doesn't 'revolve' around the BBC and even less so ITV these days, again...

Just received my share holders certificate from 'The Somerset and Dorset Joint Railway Company Limited' (Midsomer Norton) 100 Ordinary 'B' shares, obviously I'm contributing to the rebuilding of a part of the S&D, but personally means a lot to me. I've got 2 other certificates somewhere here too...

Been working out a route for hopefully next Monday covering all passenger lines in one day, leaving Penzance at 08.44 on a Ride Cornwall ticket, weather providing of course (photographic purposes), get back 'home' to Pz 21.42, for around £8.60 (with a Devon and Cornwall card) it'll certainly be...

Never really tried, but when using my camera, it doesn't come out 'sharp' I put it on 'Night' mode but obviously I am not doing something right, might sound like 'basic' error, but what do i need to do to stop 'bluring' of night time shots?? My camera is a Nikon Coolpix L110...do i need a tripod...

India's Virender Sehwag 219 from only 149 deliveries faced...cricketing 'carnage' (previous best was Sachin Tendulkar 200 Not Out)

Used to do it back in the 80's but even though I'm a great reader/follower of all things BRITISH railways, i can no longer see the point of it, recently on the FGW Class 142 farewell tour of Devon, there were many (older than me, I'm 43) still 'well at it' writing everything down, i can see the...

Thinking of doing this possibly next summer time, but haven't a clue where to start, any help etc would be appreciated (best deals etc). Would be standard class of course :wink:

Next Saturday, always a good day out, Home fleet running Classes 20,25,33 and 37 running with Class 122 'Bubble' as well, very friendly staff at the line, hopefully getting there nice and early too :wink: Link for the days running order...

Sadly died today aged just 52,after a short battle with cancer, Former England Fast Bowler from the 1980's, could bat a bit too (think of his 56 while batting with Ian Botham at Headingley '81). Very sad news indeed

To avoid all the 'gloom and doom' of everyday life, treating yourself and yours makes it so much more 'bearable' etc:D, I bought Judas Priests 'British Steel' CD, always loved the tracks 'Breaking The Law' and 'Living After Midnight', so I thought why not? I'll report back when it...
