Sorting out visa for Iran meant two trips to London in July and plenty of time for railway photos.

11th July featuring Ealing Broadway with GWR sets and Class 800 test, plus 68 hauled Chiltern trains and some D Stock hunting - https://www.flickr.com/photos/r-t-c/sets/72157673425499926

Excellent photos Tim R-T-C. I love the HST in the rain. Hope you did not get too wet!

I got a similar wet summers day shot at Retford a few years ago:-
