    Yes I am an active volunteer
    Photo 1 is Waterloo
    Photo 2 is at York (NRM)
    Photo 10 (of 120 and 30053) is at Swanage
    Photo 11 looks like Harmans Cross to me - I'm sure one of the Swanage people could confirm
    Photo 12 looks like Ropely
    Photo 13 could be Corfe Castle
    Photo 14 is Guildford, judging by the Cathedral
    Photo 15 is leaving Corfe Castle heading towards Norden

    I agree about 5 & 6, looks like Brighton.

    9 and 12 are Ropley (not sure where Ropely is Tom ;))

    13 I agree is Corfe

    14 definitely Guildford

    Wondering if 3 is York NRM yard?

    Ropely? It's between Allsford and Bedstead, I think :)

    More interesting images that deserve a wider public.

    Photo 1 at Waterloo was 1st Oct 1988 ("Network Day"?). 35028 was present, too, carrying Exeter head-code discs and ACE headboard, with a timber sleeper chained to the rails in front to stop her escaping down the 3rd-rail mainline!
    If 4 is Basingstoke, then I'd say 3 is as well.
    If 5 & 6 are Brighton, then 7 (black & white) is as well.
    8 is Woking, during the LSWR 150 celebrations, 29/30 June 1988. I think the date is wrong on the last shot of 30053 at Woking. According to my notes, the event was at the end of June, not May.
