The amount of photos i'm recieving, are slowing up a bit of late, so i've only got a few to add this week. I'm working hard on trying to get some more though, hopefully from the BR years.

Starting of with Martin, who captured 08706's arrival at Westbury. Out of the three he has kindly sent me, i couldn't decide on which one to use, so i've gone with adding two instead Cool

08706 - Westbury Yard - 22.11.09

-------------------------------------------------

Whilst supposed to be at work, i stopped off at Kidderminster, hopefully trying to capture their new arrival, 08896. As i needed a photo of this one, i was delighted to see it parked by the turntable. My joy turned to sorrow though, as when i was on the footbridge, i managed to drop my lens cap onto the tracks Sad

08896 - Kidderminster, SVR - 27.11.09
12099 - Kidderminster, SVR - 27.11.09

-------------------------------------------------

And finally, one sent to me from Steve, via Mr Shunterspot himself, Ian Delgado Very Happy

03072 - Haverthwaite, Lakeside & Haverthwaite Railway - 16.11.09

Ta very much guys Wink

Martin, Ken, Craig, Andy and all the others who have kindly sent me photos over the last week, there will be a slight delay in adding them to the site.

Yet again, i'm having difficulties with my email host. I'll try and get them on here as soon as possible.

Craig & Stu, i'll be having a look through your sites and will sent you a nice big list for ya Wink

Cheers guys

I've finally managed to get my PC problems sorted, so i can now crack on with the photos.

Starting off with Andy's nostalgic batch, some of which, have no date. It doesn't really matter though, as the photos are of a superb quality. Seeing the old BR blue livery in all its glory, it brings back some good memories.

So Andy, many thanks for supplying us with your photos, and guys, please visit his superb website.
