Didcot and Birmingham Easter 2006

[Tim R-T-C]

Flicking through my old photo folders, I discovered a few shots I took while on Easter holidays in 2006, travelling from Lancaster to Worcester and then onto London. Sadly I was on something of a lull in train photography then and have no notes and only a few photos, but thought I would post them for the record.

Some of the highlights:

Just goes to show, photograph everything you possibly can cuz one day it'll suddenly be vintage. Good work!

Thanks. It is so frustrating though realising what you missed photographing. I lived in Lancaster for four years during the transition from loco hauled to Pendolino WCML services and never took any photos, similarly I have only a couple of pictures of the 308 EMUs on the Airedale Line. Thats why I try and photograph everything railway related, interesting or routine now.
