Pick 'n' Mix

This is another mix of photos for today's post, 30th October 2011, with no common theme. I have chosen four pics from different contributors.

The first shot is from Jeff Nicholls and shows, once again, his command of the vertical format. Network Rail class 950, 950 001, is shown passing Crosfields Works in Warrington on 28th October 2011. The unit was built in 1987 and is used for track assessment.




Next up is John Smith's shot of a convoy of five DRS class 66s. They were pictured at Winwick, southbound, on 26th October 2011. The locos were off lease on their way to Crewe and were 66418, 66415, 66414, 66416 and 66417.




The third pic is from Ken Young. Featured is Freightliner class 66, 66620, but I have no details of the working. The location is the Mersey Bridge and the date, 15th April 2011.


The final shot is another of Dave Harris's retro shots. The Stanier 'Pacific', ex LMS No.6201 Princess Elizabeth, was depicted at Red Bank on 15th October 2011 on the 'Royal Scot' railtour. Dave has carried out plenty of digital manipulation to create an authentic looking photograph e.g. no wires etc.
