Just thought i would upload some recent'ish pictures from when i have had chance to pop out for some rail photography around york. But im way too tired to be bothered with a write up :(


HST heading out of the York.

When the deltic turned up, my shot was slightely ruined with my batteries dieing in mid consecutive shooting lol, but this is one i did get just before, so i wasnt overly bothered.

The new Stobart/DRS charter Set, still looking sexy a week after it was first unveiled.

When we was out for the Bittern A4 kettle, i got a few shots of some other odd stuff...

South York

The shot which i had in mind for a long long time was of some Peds or a serco test train coming through on a level crossing, on a really moody day, and strangely I stumbled on exactly the type of shot i had invisaged! However, absolutely nothing came through, not even a box. Hopefully next time...

Similar location same day.

Finally, when the Bittern had returned from its voyage to newcastle, traction was changed to a 47, and 57 at the rear, whilst the bittern headed for the NRM. Me and a friend luckily spotted some 47 cab windows from the iron bridge, off chance, and headed down...

With the Bittern now gone, the hustle and bustle had defected to only me and a friend, quite nice infact!

The shot of the 91 looks perticularly good there...
and the dessie looks like it has grown fatter around the boxes, suppose thats just the light though...
