    Hi Neil,

    I can't add to the locations, but image 16/22 conveys Southern rolling stock. On that basis it is probably a Bristol TM to Portsmouth or Brighton working.

    Cheers, Neil

    Hi Neil,

    That's a lovely picture of Green Par, something alas I never saw.

    36/51 76025 Wimborne. 9 The odd design signal box is the giveaway.)
    42/51 76026 Bournemouth Central
    48/51 76027 Eastleigh. Probably a service from Southampton Terminus to Didcot via the DN & S with the GW coaches.

    Cheers, Neil
