  6. The XPT is a class of train which has heavy design influence and engineering taken from the British Rail HST from the mid 1970s. Most HST units in the UK have now been withdrawn, but quite a few Australian cousin XPT Units are still in service! This is the already 34 x min late 12:47 departure for Grafton!

  10. This class of Diesel locomotives were built in the late 1950s/Early 1960s. This example 03 179 was based on the Isle of Wight for many years before leaving in 1996. Entering preservation and immaculately restored,it has returned to the Isle of Wight Steam Railway in 2025 for at least 10 x years.

  11. The Class A1 “Terriers” were designed by William Stroudly and built for the London Brighton and South Coast Railway (LBSCR) in the 1870s. Known for their diminutive size, distinctive exhaust and strength, several have entered preservation. This one spent a few bizarre years as a pub sign on the Mainland on Hayling Island!

  15. The Badshot Lea Goalkeeper dives in vain to save the ball entering the net. His face says it all and this was the first of six goals scored by Aldershot Town on a hot, sunny July afternoon. This was a “Pre -Season Friendly” fixture.

  16. Unfortunately the photographer didn’t record which vessel this was but it is either Wight Ryder I or Wight Ryder II on the 20:20 Portsmouth Harbour to Ryde Pier sailing. The Sun is setting on a hot day and the Solent is a perfect calm.

  17. It is almost 23:00 hrs and the Sun set almost 2 x hours previously. However the sky is still bright and the Sun below the horizon lights the clouds. This contrasts with the street lighting and house lighting in Hampshire, England.

  18. Most of the Hogmoor Inclosure in England is in early twilight, but a shaft of Sunlight still pitches in from the West from the low Sun. This phenomena occurs in a particular part of the forest due to the geography of the hills and building to the West and the slight incline of the path into the forest. If you were of such belief, you could think this is an entrance to an enchanted fairy kingdom!

  19. The MV Victoria of Wight sailing from Fishbourne to Portsmouth Gunwharf meets Wightlink Sister MV St Clare on the reverse sailing. The setting Sun, the perfect calm and the massive Fawley Oil Refinery to the right of MV St Clare provide the backdrop.

  23. Pictured at Fremantle Station in Western Australia, the above train is about to depart to Perth. These units bear a family resemblance to the Class 701 Units (and cousins) in the UK, which isn’t really a surprise as they are manufactured by Bombadier and Downer Rail. The UK units are a Bombadier design!

  27. I really thought the cloud swirls looked really good. I was going to crop the picture but thought ultimately the street light and house lighting added to the atmosphere. 🙂

  28. A wonderfully atmospheric view in the Spring sunshine of Ryde Esplanade where Class 484 has just arrived from Ryde Pier Head. In the background can be seen the landmark “All Saints” Church.

  29. This bridge across the River Wey is very interesting as it once housed 2 x Waterwheels which powered an old iron foundry. The foundry ceased operating in the 19th Century and there is little evidence now apart from this bridge and its abutments. Some old iron ore “slag” can still be found around the site, though. This is located at Hammer, a village where the county boundaries of Surrey, West Sussex and Hampshire meet just outside Haslemere. The view is spoilt a bit by the water pipe crossing in front of the bridge (this is much more recent) and the author does not know where this pipe goes to or from.
