    I caught yesterday's flambouyant departure from Victoria and I am trying to upload a picture but with no success. Try as I might I cannot find any guidance here on how to do this and what errors I may have made in the attempts. I keep getting an error message no matter what size of image I attempt. Any help would be appreciated.

    Looking at some of the above videos, the closest bit of the loco to the platform edge looks like the outside cylinder casing rather than anything in the cab area.

    i may not be right but make sure the saved file you are trying to upload is a jpeg, actually you can upload 8 different file types check your pic is one of these files or maybe the uploader on this site is faulty

    Slowing for a red at Kensington Olympia, coming off the Tulse Hill line at Herne Hill, and an attempt at an evening shot from Addison Gardens.

    Ah, so that was you at Herne Hill when two of us on the other platform were 'bowled' by a ten car 442 ECS!

    Interesting that the 47 changed its two rear reds at Guildford to a single flashing one later on.

    The flashing one is I think the standard hand lamp hung on the back, the twin reds the permanent ones on the loco. But why the change????

    Ferry Lane and Chilworth were the 1st June, Betchworth was filmed on the 25th! However why they decided on a different light arrangement between the runs I have no idea!

    This shows the said 442, it took the Tulse Hill Line, to Streatham Hill sheds.
    I've had the same happen there before with a black 5 (45231).
