Miscellaneous Rail Images 1:
1970 - 1991

Here are a few random samples of black and white images, depicting railway operations in Britain between 1970 and 1991.

As much as I derive satisfaction from having recorded some modest fragments of railway history, I cannot help but think of all the shots that were spoiled or that got away completely as I learned the art and craft of photography.
