My “home page” improved, I hope!

Perhaps I’m too fussy, but what might look good one day doesn’t look so good the next time you look at it. I’ve been think about changing the appearance of the home page for a long time, but adding photos to a gallery is more interesting than trying to design a page.

Spent many hours today working on it & uploaded it this evening:-

Don’t forget to “refresh” your browser page, otherwise you might still be looking at the old page!!!!

Severn Valley Railway photos, in albums by date.

I’m experimenting with a new way to show SVR photos. The actual photos will stay in existing albums, but will also appear in linked albums, labelled by the date they were taken. Any new photos added will also appear in this new section, but I will try to work through existing albums so that one day all the SVR photos will be displayed this way.

Sounds confusing, maybe, but you can see what I mean from this link:-

Hope you like the idea?

Update 180. 7812 & D3937 at Bewdley on 2nd September

Called in at Bewdley for lunch. Was surprised to see D3937 shunting wagons, another excuse for more photos. I noticed “TB2” on the cabside, probably refers to recent “Thunderbird” duties when a service train failed and the 08 was sent to recover the train. I wasn’t expecting the dining train either, hauled by 7812.

The service trains arriving just after 1pm I didn’t photograph, as they were both “backwards”.

Here is a shot of the 08 in action:-
