NEW Added 6 January 2026 - East Midlands Airport and Quorn (4 January 2026)
A quick trip over to EMA, mainly to capture the Atlas Air 777 on stand 83 and an Ethiopian Cargo 777, then a quick call in at Quorn on the GCR for a picture of a DMU.

NEW Added 6 January 2026 - Severn Valley Railway (3 January 2026)
A trip over to the Severn Valley Railway for their Winter Steam Gala.

NEW Added 6 January 2026 - A Grid a Shed and a Little Bit of Snow (2 January 2026)
With a bit of snow on the ground, I took 56098 down the sidings at Asfordby to pose it on the front of a couple of Mk3s, then I stopped off at Copley's Brook for a dirty 66718 on the way home.

NEW Added 6 January 2026 - Boxing Day at EMA (26 December 2025)
A nice surprise on Boxing Day, a Qatar Airbus A340 visiting East Midlands Airport.

Added 20 December 2025 - Early Morning Whistling Wardrobes (15 December 2025)
On my way to work I grabbed a shot of a pair of class 20s on a barrier move (plus a class 66 that was just in front of them). Then the 20s caught up with me again at work as they had come to collect a TfW class 398.

Added 20 December 2025 - Offord Cluny and Tonbridge (13 December 2025)
I started off at Offord Cluny for a picture of 47810 on a charter, but I managed a few other bits while I was there. Then it was off down to Tonbridge for a photo shoot with some of GBRf's class 73 fleet. This was organised by Chris Gee of Northern Diesel Photo Charters, and very good it was too. I represented the GBRf Charity Panel and also did a bit of stewarding and helped clean a few of the locos. Big thanks to Chris and his team, and to my GBRf colleagues at Tonbridge who were really accommodating. A great day.

Added 20 December 2025 - Small Heath (30 November 2025)
The main shot I was after was of the 47 leaving Birmingham with the Polar Exdpress, but by the time that happened the light had collapsed, so just a shot of the steam taking the ECS in and a pair of 172s where I would have done the 47.

Added 20 December 2025 - Didcot (29 November 2025)
A Timeline Events photo charter with diesels at the Didcot Railway Centre. The evening was topped off with a mainline steam tour passing through Parkway station for a bonus shot. A big thank you to Neil Cave and David Williams for a top evening.

Added 20 December 2025 - Steel Empties (25 November 2025)
6V92 at Copley's Brook.

Added 20 December 2025 - London (23/24 November 2025)
An evening trip down to London to capture the Central Line 1962 Tube Stock Rail Adhesion Train. I also managed a few Central Line trains, plus a couple of Piccadilly Line trains, an engineering train, the London Road Depot full house shot and a view of Albert Bridge.
