Prototype Rocks By Rail Photo Charter

[Dave Bowden]

Hi All

I thought you may be interested in some of the following photos taken by me last Saturday, weather was appalling but when you have committed to go, you go. This will be the 4th time we have come here and the weathers been bad every time.

I always try to look at some of the locos and rolling stock with a modellers eye, I don't always get it right.
The first photo is of a very old loco, a Beyer Peacock of 1879.




This is a tanker used as a water bowser for the locos


Next is a very old coach see the thumbnails for details.



This is the same coach!!




This does say it is an LMS vehicle but I've been caught out before by someone with more knowledge than me.

A couple of photos of Iron Ore tippers.



The Next set of photos are of work in progress.





Finally a couple of night shots.




Dave.

Lovely! I think the damp conditions actually add something special to the atmosphere of your photography. If you have any more images do please put them up!

Hi Osgood
Thank you for the comments, We going to be away from tomorrow till next Tuesday (photo charter on the SVR with 7812 Erlestoke Manor on Monday) so I'll see what I can find when I get back. Of the 120 photos I took on Saturday I ended up binning half of them.

Hi Osgood and all

Here's the last three photos that are reasonable and worth a look.

Great pictures all, thank you very much for sharing them

Worth a look? I'll say, that last one is a great composition.

Super shots. I like the coach body - on what looks like a milk tank chassis. The coach body could almost host Dan, in Titfield Thunderbolt

Thank you for that, there is certainly a big difference between the two sides.
