Hello everyone. If you prefer your railway photography 📷 from a different perspective, I post on Instagram too. → https://t.co/AkbWkkpnOj Please feel free to have a look 👀 and if you like it, then give it a follow. #RailwayPhotography #Trainspotting #TravelVibes

Rotten weather, but I couldn’t resist! TfW 158827 approaches Barmouth with the service from Birmingham to Pwllheli. Again, not quite a pair of 25s or a 37/4, but a location that is second to none! #TfW #Class158 #Barmouth #BarmouthBridge

20007 & 20205 Make regular appearances in the York area, usually moving the new Tyne and Wear Metros. Wonderful to hear these English Electric choppers in action! #Class20 #Chopper #EnglishElectric #Type1 #York

158832 Transport for Wales service stands at Aberystwyth ready to depart for Machynlleth. A far cry from when pairs of 25s used to come here! Nice to see that the run round loop still exists though. #Class158 #TfW #Aberystwyth

55824 (144001) Stands forlorn against the wall at Huddersfield in its final resting place. Quite a few of these old Pacer vehicles were reutilised following their withdrawal having being donated by Porterbrook. #Class144 #Pacer #Huddersfield

September 2017, and 68021 ‘Tireless’ is pictured undergoing commissioning tests at Crewe following modifications to permit work with the Mk5 coaches. Amazing days, and proud to have been involved. #Class68 #Cat #NOVA3

Foster Yeoman liveried 59003 ‘Yeoman Highlander’ heads west through Reading with a trainload of aggregates. I remember thinking how odd these looked and sounded at the time! #Class59 #FosterYeoman #GM #ReadingStation

Morning all. Former LNER power car 43272 departs Leeds with the PLPR test train. Only seems like yesterday when this power car earning its keep up and down the ECML on class 1 services. Enjoy your day. #HST #PowerCar #Class43 #TestTrains #PLPR #LeedsCityStation

60087 ‘Ingleborough’ rumbles through Leeds with 6M31, the Hunslet to Arcow Quarry. Oddly routed through the platform on this occasion. #Class60 #Tug #LeedsCityStation #GBRf

91104 Captured at Newcastle during the ‘East Coast’ period of operation with a service heading for London Kings Cross. As liveries go, this one wasn’t going to win many prizes! #Class91 #Electra #NewcastleCentral #EastCoast

37152 Caught receiving maintenance attention at Eastfield TMD. The loco had already been stripped of its ‘British Steel Ravenscraig’ nameplates. Thankfully the loco was saved and survives today as 37310. #Class37 #Tractor #EastfieldTMD #ED #BritishRail

180102 Grand Central Adelante stands in York awaiting departure for Sunderland. Looking a little bit battered and bruised these days, these unloved units soldier on. #Class180 #Adelante #GrandCentral #York

Not too long following its conversion to 37904, this wonderful vision of Railfreight passes through Cardiff on its way to Canton. Always my preferred variant of this livery, wasn’t too keen on the red stripe addition that followed. #Class37 #Tractor #Railfreight

Crewe Works during the 1980s, an amazing place to be! 37233 Sits on the traverser, stripped of just about everything, awaiting its refurbishment and transformation into 37889. #Class37 #Tractor #CreweWorks #BritishRail #ZC

Morning everyone, hope we’re all well. Gateshead Generator, 47411 ‘The Geordie’ stands in Leeds with an east bound TransPennine service. The loco was sadly withdrawn in 1989, and met its end at Frodingham in 1994. #Class47 #Generator #Duff #Pennines #BritishRail

I adored the 442s, this was the peak of Network South East EMUs for me. Yes, they had recycled motors, but to all intents and purposes, it was a Mk3 coach EMU, it didn’t get much better! Gone before their time. #Class442 #NetworkSouthEast

Most definitely one of those locos that seemed to follow me everywhere I went. How I wish this were still the case! Revised liveried 47455 awaits its next turn at Liverpool Lime Street. #Class47 #Duff #BritishRail #LargeLogo #LiverpoolLimeStreet

LUMO 803004 passes through York, adorned with its Smurfs vinyls. Never been a huge fan of using the train exteriors as mobile advertising hoardings. #Class803 #Lumo #Smurfs #York

68034 ‘Rail Riders’ brings that wonderful Caterpillar soundtrack back to Platform 16 at Leeds. A bitter reminder of the amazing job satisfaction these provided. Wonderful to see the Mk5 press launch shots yesterday for Chiltern; you have chosen well. #Class68 #DRS #Leeds

The undisputed king of the west coast main line, in my opinion anyway, the class 87. Captured at Liverpool Lime Street, 87020 ‘North Briton’ takes a breather between workings. Very happy days. #Class87 #WCML #InterCity #LiverpoolLimeStreet #BritishRail
