    Some interesting shots, and happily I can help you with a few of the 'Unknown locations' in the preserved section.

    No.50 of 55 is Alresford Station, Mid Hants Railway (looks like it's arriving on a down train into Platform 2)
    No.53 of 55 is Quorn and Woodhouse Yard, Great Central Railway
    No.55 of 55 is Pitsford Sidings, Northampton & Lamport Railway

    Sorry Jamie - But I have to make these mistakes to avoid the accusation of being perfect.
