Summer 1974, midland railtourer and my first use of an SLR borrowed from a school friend.

Many thanks to 'Marra Man' as always for the train details, 12.20 Willesden FLT to Holyhead FLT.

Early 1981 and the loco that was first numerically in the AC electrics is at the other end of the line from its home depot of Shields Road Glasgow.

One of my early efforts, with the composition less than ideal! The 12.20 Willesden FLT to Holyhead FLT heads north.

However, a busy scene at Stafford in the summer of 1974 when a group of us were enjoying a week on a 'Midland Railtourer'. Fab - unlimited travel in an area bordered by here, Banbury, Gloucester, Derby and Stamford.
