The Netherlands & August Updates

[andrewmay]

I'm Back!

Apologies for the lack of updates but here I am, back with the goods from Holland and a few more from England. Me and Scott took a trip on the Dutch-Flyer service from Chelmsford to Harwich, then onward by boat to Hoek Van Holland then to Eindoven for a few nights. With a Zomertoer ticket in one hand, and camera in the other, we headed about the south of the country. The Netherlands certainly opened my eyes to how a railway can be run, how rail enthusiasts can be treated and how long captions can take, hence why there arent any Maybe some day.

Other photos from the U of K include a Rail Blue charter, the N2 & Fairburn Tank at the GCR and shots from Grantham, Colchester, Chelmsford, Marks Tey, Bishops Stortfrod and the GCRn.

Coming soon...Photos from September including the Churnet Valley Railway and the GCR's Diesel Gala.

Thanks very much for the comment. Yeah, couldnt have asked for better. Sure was glad of the air conditioning on their trains.
