Welcome
Hi and welcome to my website!

I decided to take up rail photography,digitally (Casio QV-R61) in 2006 after a couple of years using film,i have since then moved up in the digital ranks and eventually moved up to a 10MP Fuji S1000FD. This was by no means a top of the range camera but certainly improved my photography,i am now using a Canon EOS 40D this is my first DSLR so it may take a small while to get used to! Anyway,i hope you enjoy my photos, there are currently roughly 7000 photos taken by me displayed on this site with about 200 of my Dad's archive shots also on show.


About Me:
Hi! My name is Mark and i'm 17 and live in Wakefield West Yorks,my common locations locally are Hare Park Junction,Oakenshaw and Nostell Opencast but i can crop up just about anywhere as you have no doubt gathered so if you see me don't forget to say hi! I also have a second home in Dawlish Warren,Devon hence the large assortment of photos taken in that area!

My main interests outside of railway photography are traveling on railtours and watching rugby league,i am an avid fan of Featherstone Rovers!

I am just about to finish a 2 year college course studying IT,after which it's time to look for a job,which might be difficult!!!

Lastly i would like to thank all the various Gen posters and gen groups for their top gen which helps me to see the things i do!! I would also like to thank Mark Rawlinson for providing Freightmaster and the gen providers on Going loco for their inside knowledge! I would also like to thank those who have given me photographic advice over the last 3 and a half years,their input is helping me improve all the time!


Also a special thanks to those people who continue to view my site week in week out and i hope you enjoy my photos!!!!

Enjoy,
Mark

Here are some photos from Vintage Trains' 'Bristolian' from Solihull to Bristol Temple Meads hauled by GWR 4-6-0 Castle Class no.5043 'Earl of Mount Edgcumbe' and 47773 (formerly 'The Queen Mother'). Unfortunately 5043 had to be taken off the train at Didcot with a bent Radius Rod, fortunately the Tyseley crew found a spare from the scrapped 5009 'Shrewsbury Castle', the train continued to Bristol with Tyseley's class 47/7 no 47773,this then returned the train to Didcot (Foxhall) where a decision was to be made as to when the Castle could return to the train. Unfortunately,even though Bob Meanley and his crew had worked to fix Edgcumbe succesfully it couldn't work the train back so in the end 47773 carried on to Solihull and ultimately Tyseley.
