If you do go I would recommend you go on a sunny day, because when its cloudy or getting dark there aren't many lights in the yard to light up photos, best place to go for pictures is the road bridge I went to when the suns at a good angle.

Thanks for all the comments folks! :D
Just a shame that fotopic can decrease the quality of pictures sometimes though.

ner ner i think your computer might be jinxed, nice shots 37372

Thornaby Station is ok from around 12:30-14:30 then shadows start to creap in see:

that is 14:15, but locations like South Bank can be done from around 12:00-14:00 in the car and then even then you can get the same freights again leaving Tees Yard as they have 30mins-1hr break in the yard

hope this helps
