    Ah yes. The gint shot you mentioned was indeed my train - though you got my driver and I wason the otherside.

    I have given up with Railpictures. My shot of 143 on the reverse curves was rejected by them - reasion: Overexposed!

    Hi - I may have you in another shot as you approached me, I just haven't got round to processing that one yet.

    I know what you mean ](*,) - getting shots on Railpictures can be 'challenging' at times, but it has taught me a lot of Photoshop techniques along the way. This one from the other side of the Cob took several attempts before being accepted

    Fantastic videos there Steve, showing just how much noise a Garratt can make.

    And that 87 will still pull a train backwards despite missing an exhaust beat.

    And with Jeremy fireing :(

    Pull a train backwards, that is, not inspite of his firing, as he is very good :roll: But we all know a blue thing didn't :smt003

    Some excellent photos you have there Kenneth. I do need to make a visit to the WHR this summer.
