Work has taken me to East Anglia a few times this year and this collection presents a selection of the scenes recorded on my travels. Views include Norwich, Colchester, Clacton, Witham, Marks Tey, Ipswich and features both DMU/EMU stock and loco-hauled on the Norwich - Liverpool Street mainline as well as the Great Yarmouth - Norwich 'drag' and 70013 Oliver Cromwell.

Glorious spring sunshine accompanied my recent visit to Portsmouth. Included here are scenes at Havant and Hilsea, two locations that I have not previously photographed.

A variety of 377s, 444s and 450s plus a couple of FGW 158s on the Cardiff- Portsmouth route are depicted.

I've had two trips to Birmingham within the space of a month this year. The first was to Aston on 14th February 2009. Unfortunately the weather was not kind and in fading light I've put together a selection of the better shots.

The second trip on 7th March was to experience the Wrexham & Shropshire service from London Marylebone and includes shots at Tame Bridge Parkway plus a few of Curzon Street in central Birmingham.

This collection features photos I took at both Holyhead and Bangor, showing a variety of rolling stock and operators plus 67001 and 67003, which hauled the charter I was on to and from Holyhead.

Milton Keynes Central has recently seen rebranding with replacement of the obsolete Silverlink signage with new London Midland type. These look quite attractive and importanly are easy to read being in a clear, legible font.

Whilst waiting for the Holyhead Railtour and on the return, I took this collection of photos around Milton Keynes Central, showing various aspects of the new signage and Platform 5.
