Hello there, and welcome to my fotopic site devoted to locos on passenger trains, or in some cases, photgraphed just before or just after working a passenger train.
All of the locos 'nearest the camera' were ones I have travelled on between 1985 and the present day. Not being a "top man" means that certain locos won't be on the site, whilst the credit crunch means that preserved locos will appear at a slower rate, but there are still 1600+ photos here. Several contributors have helped to fill in the gaps where I have only poor quality pictures (or no pictures at all), and some of their own websites can be found due right.
This site is virtually complete, with only one loco "missing". Now and then, some pictures may be replaced with better quality shots, but only if it adds variety to the site. The site will continue to be updated with pictures of any new "winners" I get. The collections for Classes 87, 89 and 91 are complete, whilst the Class 50 collection is as "complete" as it can be. Please have a look round and come back again.
Since 10th March 2009, this site has included a bonus gallery of photos of disused stations, and other "archive" pictures. Some of these includes scans of what were digital prints, and flashguns have been used to try and light up some of the pictures, so quality is not 100% but hopefully anybody with a fascination in the "then" and "now" will find something interesting.
In the week ending June 27th, there have been additions to the Narrow Gauge, Steam, 66 and "Disused Stations" galleries.
If you have any questions about any of the workings depicted on the site, or you want me to put a link on for your website, you can email me at jason45104@fsmail.net.
Cheers, Jason
