Popped down to Tamworth station this afternoon to have a look at the
four tracking and resignalling work.
Took a few pictures of passing trains, and I've just posted them on
Flickr at -

This week I've also added a dozen or so pictures (mainly steam shed
shots) from 1965.

Bill, what's interesting about your collection (or one of the things)
is you took shots which I would never have bothered with, but which
are fascinating today.
What the hell was that HC shunter, D2518, doing on Bletchley shed, for
exaample? I never remember any such locos there.

What excellent piccys:)
And the colour quality for 1965 is excellent too. These from
Transparencies?, surely not prints. And have they been digitally cleaned
up?..
