I have decided to wait to Saturday and make a start on all those jobs around the house that I have been putting off... Now thinking I need to go back to work for a rest! :P

Re: Service Temporarily Suspended

He has just text to say it's finished and all working as it should. So, do I drive all the way down there to collect it tomorrow (day off) or do I wait until Saturday...

BMMO S19 engine number plaque

While most of the sole BMMO S19 went for scrap many years ago, one engineer helped himself to the engine number plaque before it went.

Not too clear in the photo, but reads...

Engine No. H793
Type S17. & 19. 10.5
Date 24.3.65

Re: Upton's 2017 Festivals (etc).

I hope the residents of The Graftons were made aware of the reasons for the loss of their bus service. Such thoughtless parking is becoming more of a problem in many places - I was reading the other day on a fire service message board of a situation I think in Birmingham where firefighters had to a...

Service Temporarily Suspended

To my horror, the computer I use to program the website and edit/store all my photographs suffered a fatal crash yesterday morning. :shock: Luckily I have a very good friend who is a highly paid IT consultant in the City so a phone call was made and I found he was on emergency call but things were q...

Re: Upton's 2017 Festivals (etc).

Haven't seen any passenger numbers, but my impression was that there wasn't a great deal of additional passengers using the bus for the festival. There were certainly some, but not enough to warrant extra capacity. There are larger festivals later in the season so many they will be more busy. We wer...

Re: Heritage diesel cavalcade passing Shrub Hill 28 April 2017

I know little about trains, but I imagine that must have been one hell of a load to require all of those! :lol:

Are these all "Preserved" trains?

Hmmm... Multiple D9s. That sounds like a treat! Also nice to see the CM6 outside. That always seems to be parked indoors when I visit.

Great photographs as always Tim, thanks for sharing.

Re: Sunday 30 April 2017 at Wythall part three

I was looking at 3795 when I was up there a few weeks ago and I think it has become part of the structure of the building now as it appears to be leaning against the steel support and holding it up! It would be nice to see it in an open location to get some clear photographs of the whole vehicle (an...
