I have taken photos at St Pancras (low level, SE and EMT) in the past without problem. Admittedly not that many and not for very long however. It's not always the London termini that prove difficult as I've experienced difficulty at: Barking - In July, a female member of staff said "Do...

I was once told off for taking photos at Orpington because "the Olympic rules" were still in place in November 2012 and that it's because it's a big station! So take it with a pinch of salt is my advice until you hear something official. However if it is true, that would be quite a shame. I...

I saw a 70 at Walsall last month but I have no clue how common that is. A double headed 66 went through shortly before; I think one of the locomotives had failed.

Returned to Ipswich today and saw two 70s in the yard! This is the best photo I got of one. :D

Went to Stratford to see a booked 70 working and was unlucky again. I think a 90 was hauling it instead. Eventually I'll see one in person!

Went to Ipswich on Wednesday and well... I haven't got a photo of a 70 yet! :( :lol: I heard we missed 70009 by ten minutes as well. Saw quite a lot of other interesting freight though.

My grandfather and I went to Ealing Broadway after going to the Acton Depot Open Day on Sunday and we went to the shelter on platform 2/3 and had something to eat. While we were sat there looking at trains, a member of staff walked down platform 2 looking around and peered in at us. Because of...

Hi all, I was wondering where a good place to get a photo of a Class 70 would be, preferably not too far from Ashford in Kent, if possible. I understand there aren't many (if any at all) Class 70 workings through Ashford, so any recommendations would be appreciated. :)

Sorry if this is a little late for a response, but I'll write this anyway! :D Indeed, Clapham's great still and Stratford still offers good variety (especially if you like Underground and DLR stocks as well as the occasional 90 a little more rarely, a fast 357). Other places I recommend that...

We went to Bromley South today and everything was fine until after we had returned from Beckenham Junction. We were back on platforms 3 and 4 for our train back to Ashford and I was just about to film a Networker departing when a member of staff walked up to me, half getting in the way, and...

I don't exactly know how it stands legally, but I imagine it would be similar to taking photos or videos at a station. Either way, I've done it a number of times on Southeastern and Southern trains with ticket inspectors nearby and I've never been told to stop.

I've certainly not found this to be the case at Ashford International or Tonbridge. At those two they seem to be very good about it. At Redhill (Southern, but still Govia) a member of staff asked politely if we would tell the station supervisor that we were there taking photos, but was almost...

I use a Pentax K-x with the kit 18-55mm lens for stills and video. It's my first DSLR and I'm very happy. I upgraded from a Kodak CX7330 point and shoot and a Samsung DVD camcorder (VPDC171W) and the results are considerably better with the K-x!
