eastwestdivide Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Hope the driver of the big grab has better eyesight than we do, or soon it'll be two shunters. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
EddieB Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Dusk at Lone Star Steel, Lone Star, Texas (the "Lone Star State"). The loco is a modified (uglified) S4M secondhand from AT&SF. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium newbryford Posted March 14, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 14, 2018 (edited) I found one, looks like a Hunslet shunter, but no more. From a different direction. One each from Ruston, Hunslet and Sentinel The roof of the Ruston is only just visible just in front of the Hunslet in the other picture - complete with flashing light on it. I though the Sentinel would be the easy one to find! Cheers, Mick Edited March 14, 2018 by newbryford 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love the catch point just short of the crossing. Anything travelling at other than dead slow will probably reach the main lines. Cheers, Mick Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Ian Smeeton Posted March 16, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 16, 2018 Am I too late for a Wildcard? Let's go Banger Blue 40 008 at Guide Bridge 1981 ish Easy to guess, except for the date! And for the next, lets have another wild card Regards Ian 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium petethemole Posted March 16, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 16, 2018 Hadn't seen JNAs marked up like this until this week; one of a rake at Eastleigh yesterday. Next, something else with an uncommon livery or markings. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liam Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 (edited) The Ryedale Miniature Railway, situated in the grounds of the village hall at Gilling East, North Yorkshire.

eastwestdivide Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Ivor the Engine, aka 97800 or 08600, was the Slade Green shunter for many years, latterly with a special paint job. Slightly dodgy photo from a passing train: 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Metr0Land Posted March 17, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 17, 2018 This one's a bit perverse. Sud Ost Bahn 465 015 at Luzern May 2007. What's uncommon about this? In my experience all the others in the class were covered in advert liveries. I've never understood why bus/train companies employ expensive design agencies to come up with corporate identities and then cover too many of their vehicles in adverts. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
eastwestdivide Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 (edited) While we're in Switzerland, a livery depicting the civil engineering that the train's about to pass over: Maybe not so rare a livery, as it also appears on one of these (which I don't think traverse the Landwasser viaduct in normal service): Edited March 17, 2018 by eastwestdivide 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium newbryford Posted March 17, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 17, 2018 66720 with it's kid's livery A model got in the way...... Shame the real thing was the wrong way round. Cheers, Mick 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold phil_sutters Posted March 18, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 18, 2018 (edited) Only a bit of this HST with Plymouth Ocean City vinyl - but Reading is so cluttered with OLE masts it was a pain snapping there.
