Rather a narrow field is this one! I may find myself delving through some old prints here. I hope my scanner is up to the task:eek:

And to think I got criticised once for choosing AC electrics and not specifying UK only either! I'm gonna need to dig deep too, I feel a lot of my shots of the class are not up to scratch sadly

 

[Ferret]

Ditto! I can't think of anything I've done on the 87s that is of real quality Wonder if there's any cheap airfares to Bulgaria for Wed morning?!

 

[37401]

All mine are naff n all cant find a good `en among the few I have

 

[Phoenix]

Personally i think it's a good choice because well at the moment I havent seen many electric related topics so maybe everyone could do we investing some time on the WCML well accept Ferret he see's 4L92 more than I do lol

 

[90019]

Well, once again I've got nothing for this.

*cough*Long Marston*cough*

[Ferret]

Lol at the coughing gen! Hope it's not swine flu fellas!!!

Seriously though, I guess if you did an arty shot at LM that could be a winner...

 

[Phoenix]

Well to be honest all I have is Long Marston and 87001 and the Crewe heritage center example.

 

[Ferret]

Nothing of 87002 then???

Ferret
- sat on 323209 complete with horrendous wheelflats...

 

[Stacey]

Farce! Don't have any 87s... ok, with the LM gen - but when I went it heaved it down - think I'm just bowled out for this category DOH!!

P.S. Ferret, has your 323 got as bad wheel flats as my 142 had t'other day?? lol

That's a very raw subject on my part considering I got bowled by 86101 pulling it on a charter ECS and the fact it failed it's first Glasgow tour


Wait wait ........ does 86101 count

 

[Ferret]

I was on that tour! Was gutted about 87002 failing and the subsequent slow run behind 57601 which resulted in a rather late arrival in Brum. I was on at 0525 the next day!!! Was hardly worth going to bed

As for 87002, maybe we'd do better if the bloody thing made it south of Warrington once in a while on the 325 run!!!

Only got two photos I can remember the location of at the moment, or at least have on my Photobucket, so entering the one I like the most.

By the looks of it we may be flooded with photos of them sat about doing nothing...
