Double Header

Okehampton, Devon

Saturday 14th October 2006
Day 665

Yes, I've been train spotting again, and yes, nostalgia is the reason. I am too young to remember the last days of steam, yet too old to have grown up electrified! This is the shape of the Diesel's that I 'fondly' remember.

Two Class 37 Loco's on a Diesel special running at the Dartmoor Railway Diesel Gala

Excellent colours and tight frame, I agree looks like a toy!

from the thumb I couldn't decide if these were toys or real . .seems to be both

Lovely perspective. I have a secret supply of slides of these things somewhere :-)

They look too clean to be real BR diesels!

Is it me, or does the conductor look like you? I like the sun flair a lot! V

Brilliantly composed, and of course the color is very appealing.
