Dave

Hopefully you won't mind the rest of us looking!         
Nice pictures Dave and thanks for sharing.

Thanks for sharing mate!   
She is looking superb! And doesn't sound bad either from the videos I have seen!
Do you know when her nameplate will be fitted?
Fab photos!!
Cheers
Andy - Bulleid Fanatic!!

I think the plan is to have nameplates put on for the October gala but that seams to be a long time away so we have wait and see

Thanks Dave! And a really nice video by the way! I have liked and put a comment on there...... Keep em' coming mate with any Bulleid photos or videos!   

Cheers

Andy

Great video Dave.

When can the Moors have her   

Hi Andy

34081 92 Squadron is still under repair at Wansford on the Nene Valley Railway.

it was first allocated to Ramsgate Depot and was there until October 1957 when it was transferred to Exmouth Junction,it was withdrawn from there in 1964

Hi Mike,

I know, as I tend to follow all Bulleid's as and when I can and it looks as though 34081 is coming on leaps and bounds as well.... http://www.34081.brushhouse.co.uk/overhaul-archive-6.html

Andy,

Thought you'd like this.

Ben,

A golden oldie 34062 (17 Squadron) taken on 7th April 1953 photographer unknown.
Descending Mortehoe Bank , Devon.
Thought you might like it,talk about a light loading.

A lovely photo and as you say a shame about the light loading obviously leaving Ilfracombe (A place I know so well)   
They were known to do 6/7 & even 8 coaches up the bank from Ilfracombe...   
The Rebuilt's couldn't do that stretch of the line as they were too heavy! Although my Dad whom was a Nine Elms engineman knows someone whom was based around the west Country and apparently a Converted W/C did travel down the line once or twice.....
I would love to see more with heavier loads if you have any?
Thanks once again.
Andy

Not exactly running with heavy loading,but the first picture is the one engraved into my memory

The second I spotted on "Around Bournemouth"


Hope you like them

Like them...... I LOVE THEM.... Do you have anymore?? Mind you I would love them as Bulleids are my favourite of all time.... I lost photos of me firing on 35005 Canadian Pacific... But if any of you are on Facebok you should beable to see a few of me on Ivatt 41312 and on the Std 5 73096... I am still trying to find some photos of me on 34016 and 35005. I have many on 34007..
Thanks
Best Wishes
Andy

35005 as requested by a Mr Cook

34008 "Padstow" Aug 1966



and earlier at Clapham Junction 1957  

Thanks Roger,
I love the one of 34008! A great photo!  
Ben, thanks for the Video of my favourite and beloved Can-Pac.... How I miss that engine!
Cheers
Andy 

Andy,I believe both photo's are of 34008,sorta before and after shots.

Looking through my saves,these are the last three,hope you like them.
 34004    "Yeovil"

 34024    "Tamar Valley"

 34064    "Fighter Command"

Thanks Roger! Love them!
Out of Interest where is the 3rd one taken?
Thanks
Andy

Andy,I believe its Weymouth,but couldn't swear to it.!!!!!!!!!!!

Now I love this one,and there's quite a debate going on in the club as to where its taken .

Lovely photo!
To me it looks as though it is somewhere down the West Country?
Be Interested to hear anybody elses thoughts on this??
Cheers
Andy

It is Weymouth (34064) Standing in the old Platform 3, Now the site of a B&Q warehouse.
Only the excursion platforms originally 5 and 6 remain renumbered years ago to Platform 2 and 3, with a new platform 1 built to accommodate the trains from/to Bristol.
A class 444 will fit into it but it is a tight squeeze !
The bottom picture od unrebuilt 35028 is at Folkestone Junction.
