'Thomas the Tank' Day and Bo'ness and Kinneil Railway


Part of my day's trip was a run to Bo'ness and Kinneil railway.

It was a special fun day for the kids as Thomas the Tank engine and his many friends were out and about working.

There was much excitement in the air and everyone seemed to be having a good time and seeing their favourite railway engines.

Duchess of Sutherland


Another trip through to the east coast so see one of the steam train tours on the Forth Circle line.

This time the 'Duchess of Sutherland' was doing the work.

She is an LMS Princess Coronation Class - number (4)6233 - and in Green livery. She has previously had Black and also Crimson Lake liveries.

She will be back to the Crimson Lake for next year so hopefully she'll be back up and I can get photos in that livery too.

The light was not at it's best but at least it stayed dry for the day.

The usual chasing around the circle to get images in various locations and angles.
