    Friday 7th July. This started off with a fresh visit to London King's Cross, where FM Rail 31602 pulled in with the Blue Pullman ECS, shortly followed by 87028 light engine. I then visited South Tottenham, where 66063 and various Silverlink 150s appeared. Afterwards, I took a trip to Euston, where a pair of 57s were stabled quietly. Following that, I went to Marylebone and decided to visit Aylesbury for the various heritage DMUs stabled there, plus to travel on 121020. I took that to Princes Risborough, then I took a Turbo to Gerrards Cross, a quiet out of city town. Then, a Turbofreak came along, which took me home to London. A great day! Thanks for visiting!

    About Me
    Hi, my name is Ramel J Hamilton.

    My interests span from the modern Multiple Units to the old locos still knocking about the network. I live in South London. I enjoy exploring the capital and I make journeys around England.

    The main focus of this site is to depict rare workings and railtours - you let me know how I've got on by leaving a comment!

    My primary interest is photography, and I currently own a Fuji S6500 digital camera. I have had nine pictures published in various publications.

    I hope you have learnt a little about myself, and have fun browsing my collection of shots!

    RJ.
