3rd June 2006 - 40145 on tour to Whitby
Some photographs taken while chasing 40145 to Whitby when it worked a railtour from Crewe along with 37229. During the 40's layover at Whitby, there was time to pull in a couple of workings at the nearby NYMR.

9th June 2006 - Friday Off Work
I should have been in Scotland for the last 37 on the beds, but this trip was cancelled at the eleventh hour due to unavoidable circumstances. However, with the day booked off work and a mega forecast, I had a top day out locally with a couple of mates.

10th June 2006 - Market Harborough, Dunham and the S&C
An early start captured 47826 departing Market Harborough on the diesel leg of a railtour. Then it was off to Dunham for the 57 on the Holyhead and 47245 on a Glenrothes to Chester SRPS railtour. Finally, having realised that a sun on the nose shot was on at Sheriff's Brow on the S&C, we made the move north to nail 47851 returning north with the SRPS railtour. The black 66 at Settle Junction on the way home was a bonus.

17th June 2006 - EMRPS Photo Charter at Llangollen with 37901
A very pleasant day at the Llangollen Railway with 37901 on a photo charter. We lost the middle of the day to cloud, but the morning and evening sessions allowed some great photo opportunities. Thanks are due to the staff at Llangollen, the ever helpful Llangollen Diesel Group and to Steve (the loco's owner) for their efforts during the day. Thanks also to the photographers who supported the event.
