Hello Roger, hope you are well.Nice pictures on the site including yours of some Westerns. Here is an unusual sight taken at Didcot steam centre on 23 September 1995 of a new class 325 Royal mail EMU.This was taking part in a Rail by Mail special event.The units were built in 1985 but this one and others did not enter service until 1996. Thanks and best wishes, Copyright Michael Forward.

East Somerset Railway
James Bown

Hi Keith. An enjoyable visit to the East Somerset Railway today, a delightful ride to nostalgia with the added bonus of being pulled by recently restored Large Prairie 4110, beautifully restored and sounding sweet. Regards James Bown.

Cross Country HST
Jon Hird
I took a trip to Respryn last night to capture the unexpected crosscountry HST which worked to Penzance. Then, later on, I headed to St. Austell station to see it on its return. I managed to get there in time to see 57603 on the sleepers, too.
