Hello all.
 

Found this forum looking for a link to Ian Krause's 'Slow train to Riccarton'. Looks a friendly place so I will give it a good look. Recently taken up an interest in photographing railways after a lengthy break.

Hello Bill and welcome to the forum, look forward to some of your photographs.

Hi Bill.
Welcome.
Gnu was my first Eastern engine. It came through Hindley, Near Wigan, when I was a young spotter. It was so exotic, I nearly fell off the fence.

Hi

Just had a look at your website some cracking stuff in there

Ian

Welcome to the Forum, Gnu. You will enjoy it I'm sure. :)

Hello Bill and welcome to the Railway Forum.

Thank you all for the welcome.

Welcome from the other side of the world!

Hi Bill and a very warm welcome from me too. What a corker of a site you have there! some brilliant footage back in the 60's. I love the Lowrey shot (I like his paintings).
Do you know if there are any of the bridges and gantries left up there with the signal boxes built on them? I would be interested.
Anyway hope you enjoy the forum and the good company on here
All the best
Phil
