If you are in the mid Devon area you may be interested to know that I am presenting a digital show and talk this evening titled "Visions of the Landscape" to Crediton Camera Club (meeting held at the Masonic Hall, Union Street, Crediton) starting at 19.30hrs. I'm sure they would welcome guests to attend.

As I work through some of the images from this weeks Timeline Events charter at the Great Central Railway I thought I'd share a second image with you all this evening. Is this 1960's steam in perfection?

I attended a charter at the Great Central Railway earlier this week with both BR Std 5 No. 73156 & 8F No. 48624 working trains so that we could recreate some passing trains scenes.

So in this shot we see 73156 heading south with a passenger train whilst 48624 heads north with mineral empties at Swithland, such a common scene once upon a time but really only possible now on the preserved Great Central Railway. ...
