A superb first day with @bluebellrailway for their #DieselGala. Bumped into old friends, made a few new ones as well :) Roll on Saturday!!
Day 2 of the @bluebellrailway Diesel gala. Our sales stall is under the canopy at Horsted Keynes. We're next to the 1305 Thumper gang Do come and say hi. 🔴🔵⚪
455813/456014 together at Clapham Junction. This was taken as the 456s were being withdrawn during 2013. Said it once, and I'll say it again. The 456s may have been small trains, but they did big things.
Things are beginning to head in the right direction for the @epbpg; with your help whether practically or financially we can make this happen. Visit epbpg.co.uk for further details and supporting our electric preservation breakthrough. #epbpg #preservation
“TTFN, Old Girl.” Heading your way, @bluebellrailway!
And the 455/s: 5705 2O23 5706 2G36 5707 2G34 5710 2D36 5711 2J32 5712 2H28 5713 2M25 5716 2H28 5723 2G32 5728 2G34 5731 2K31 5732 2G36 5734 2J30 5735 2M27 5738 2M25 5739 2F28 Thirteens pairs in total.
Funny thing, couple of weeks ago there was discussion on FB over a painting of this photo. It's a location many of us recognised as being Stone crossing between Teynham and Faversham. I know it well having had to attend a car that got him there some years back.

My photo of Class 455854 at London Waterloo awaiting departure on 15th of February 2025, this unit was withdrawn from service, and sent to scrapyard at Newport on Wednesday 20th of August 2025. To quote @DaveWeb93044940 - “Capture the present before it becomes the past…”
IT'S TOMORROW! 159 years of Cannon Street station deserves an epic celebration! Join us 9am-7pm for cakes, tombola fun, networker train, music, and when the Lord Mayor arrives at 4:15pm, we'll all sing Happy Birthday together! See you there! #CannonStreet159 #Railway200
❤️👇
Cannon Street is having a birthday party on Monday! It’s not everyday you turn 159. Sharon and the team have lots planned. Come and say hello if you are nearby🎂👇
