The stripped remains of 37062 at Doncaster Works, December 1990
(5 hits)
Class 37
Welcome
As my interest in the current scene has become almost non-existent, these pages are now exclusively dedicated to the 1980s and 1990s. These were the days of real traction before the GM invasion destroyed the game. Sadly most rail fotopic sites now simply demonstrate how monotonous our current railways have become, with endless pages of class 66s that all look the same! I hope this one is a bit different.

Rolls and rolls of Ilford HP5 and gallons of developer and fix. Those were the days, and nobody cared if the sun shone! Thousands of these to scan in when time permits, this is just a start.
