| 1 | LMS Royal Scot 4-6-0 number 6100 Royal Scot out on display in Llangollen loco yard. The recently restored sixteen wheeler is about to undergo preperations at Crewe, for a return to the mainline. | Steel Steam and Stars 2: The Llangollen Railway's Spring Steam Gala 2009 | (12) |
| 2 | BR Class 52 Western diesel D1015 Western Champion rolls into Warrington Bank Quay for a brief driver exchange. D1015 was on her way to Inverness in Scotland, working the first leg of Pathfinder Tour's Western Chieftain, marking D1015's second trip North of the border. | Charters and other things at Warrington Bank Quay | (11) |
| 3 | This bizzare gauge layout was showcasing model trains made in T gauge (a lot smaller than N gauge). A heavy train of railcar sets crosses the painstakingly modelled viaduct on a demonstration layout. | Model Rail Scotland 2009 | (8) |
| 4 | A majority of the 86 electric locos on site at Long Marston, were a mix of Virgin and (the now defunct) Anglia. Here, Anglia 86217 stands with faded paintwork. | Long Marston Open Weekend 2009 (07/06/2009) | (7) |
| 5 | Formerly owned by the AC Loco Group, ex BR Class 73 number 73138 stands at Long Marston, awaiting a buyer. | Long Marston Open Weekend 2009 (07/06/2009) | (7) |
| 6 | A rather forlorn looking 0-4-0 saddle tank engine at Llangollen. | Steel, Steam and Stars: The Llangollen Railway's Spring Steam Gala (2007) | (6) |
| 7 | BR Class 52 Western diesel D1015 Western Champion rolls into Warrington Bank Quay for a brief driver exchange. D1015 was on her way to Inverness in Scotland, working the first leg of Pathfinder Tour's Western Chieftain, marking D1015's second trip North of the border. | Charters and other things at Warrington Bank Quay | (6) |
| 8 | Intercity liveried ex Virgin 86228 Vulcan Heritage stands at Long Marston. Hopefully she may return to service in the near future... | Long Marston Open Weekend 2009 (07/06/2009) | (6) |
| 9 | Looking reasonably presentable for the event, Virgin 57307 Lady Penelope stands on display at Long Marston. | Long Marston Open Weekend 2009 (07/06/2009) | (6) |
| 10 | The nameplate and plaque ofLMS Royal Scot 4-6-0 number 6100 Royal Scot. The plaque commemorates 6100's trip across the pond in 1933 for the 'Century of Progress Exposition', and the subsequent tour of the USA and Canada. The plaque speaks for itself. | Steel Steam and Stars 2: The Llangollen Railway's Spring Steam Gala 2009 | (6) |

I am a 25 year old enthusiast who has been into trains since my early childhood. My railway photographing often takes me to Warrington, Carlisle, Porthmadog, Liverpool and other places when time permits. I either usually go on the occasional railtour, go to a busy mainline station or visit a preserved railway to take my pictures.
And for the railway modellers, I also attend the odd model railway exhibition from time to time.
My pictures are taken on a Kodak CX6330 zoom digital camera which I have had since December 2003, and from June 2007 onwards, a Fuji Finepix S9600. Comments are greatly appreciated and welcome here or at david_hennessey@hotmail.com.
Thank you for your visit. Look again soon!
