Thank you, didn't get up to Bridgnorth myself and I'm glad you enjoyed it too. Heard the usual grumblings about the DMU at a steam event but personally liked it.

Switched website hosts and revamped the website, now means I need to redo the handle on Bluesky again. Only just got in bed as well when I realised.

Happy new year all. As always I will probably spend new years sitting and watching toy trains go in circles.

I have spent my 18th birthday today playing with toy trains and darts with my grandparents. Wouldn’t have it any other way.

Todays photo while again not some of my best work but this was all about showing photos I havent shown before, one of my favourite steam locos at the SVR, while it was looking a bit aged at its last gala, still one of my favourites.

Todays photo comes from a sunny morning walking up to the motorway bridge near Bescot Stadium, very sketchy, almost slipped here a few times. Only 3 more days!

Todays photo is of a now common sight at Tame Bridge Parkway, a WMR 196 which began stopping here in the Summer in preparation for Darlaston Station (at least to the best of my knowledge). It’s nearly Christmas all! (More importantly my birthday though)

Today’s photo is quite a different one, while not some of my best work and on mobile I thought it would be a nice bit of variety. During issues with the road section in Wolverhampton WMM Trams turnaround at Priestfield, here is an example of that

Well I haven’t posted one yet, so today’s photo is a 350/2 still in LM at Rugeley Trent Valley, in fact this was the last time I saw 350 238 before it went off to storage.
