Binliner at Oxford
Michael Forward

Hello Roger, Very interesting piece from Ron Kosys today and more great pictures. I was inspired, by his photo at Oxford of the Calvert to Avon binliner, to dig out some of my own of this train, so I send my offering of 56031 heading the empties back to Bath on 25 September 1990. All the best, Michael

Many Thanks Michael

Dartmoor Railway Diesel Gala

Hello Keith

A few shots from the October 2006 diesel gala at the Dartmoor Railway. (more photos to follow)

Now that Okehampton is now part of the national network it is extremely unlikely an event like this will ever happen again.

Not sure the status of the Dartmoor railway now, may be someone has up to date info about this?

Hope they are of interest

All the best

Paul
