 | 28th Sep 2008 | Midland Railway Centre
As I was passing by and the sun was out I decided to drop in at the MRC to see what was going on as I hadn't been for a few years. It was worth it just to see two Type 4s in blue

 | 24th Aug 2008 | Class 59s, Class 66 and Class 67s
Not a lot in here at the moment but no doubt I will add a few shots in the future

 | 24th Aug 2008 | Units
Why take photos of units? That was the question I use to ask. I couldn't understand people taking photos of them. What was the point unless there was an engine on the front. However I have learnt the error of my ways and regret not taking any photos in the past so now I just try and record whats going on.
