Hi, and welcome to my site. Most pics are taken around the Bristol / Bath area, as this is where I grew up. I also happen to work on the railway as a signaller, so have alot of pics at Temple Meads. All taken during breaks of course!!!!
There are other locations, including the South devon railway which I visit often. I have recently found myself becomming very interested in foreign railways, especially Swiss. I try to go there yearly now. Usually winter, as I also found I enjoy Tobbogganing!!!
Well, I'll leave you to browse, and feel free to email me if you wish to use any pics. |

I am a signalman at Bristol, and have worked on the railway for nearly 7 years. I work Bristol Panel (Temple Meads) and St Andrews ( Avonmouth ) boxes. I have also started working as a Pilotman for Single Line Working.
I also live in Bristol.
I own a Canon EOS 400D now, although some pics are taken on my mobile phone !!! Well, I don't always carry a SLR with me!!!
