  4. It is 05:30 in the morning and Dawn is breaking in Ryde on the Isle of Wight. Looking towards Ryde St John’s Road from the Ryde Tunnel exit, the “Distant” signal helps guard the approach to Ryde St John’s Road. The train service will not be commencing on this Sunday morning for nearly another hour.

  9. Class 47 Diesel Electric 47 529 James Nighthall GC pulls away from Ropley with the 15:45 service to Alton with a huge cloud of exhaust smoke! This picture is at the Watercress Line in Hampshire on one of the ever popular “Days out with Thomas” events! “Thomas the Tank Engine” is just to the right of the picture!

  10. The final train of the day on Island Line (formed of Class 484 005) shunts towards the Depot at the close of service. A wonderfully atmospheric picute capturing the lamplight around Ryde St John’s Road and the Moon partially obscured by clouds.

    A Dive in Vain!

    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.

  20. Always a great view, and particularly after a long days work! It would be easy to remove the dock fence post and railings from the shot, but I think it gives depth to the image.
  21. 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. 🙂
  22. Ivatt Class 2 Tank 41313 runs around its train at Smallbrook Junction after arriving from Wooton on the Isle of Wight Steam Railway.

  23. P&O Cruise Liner “Iona” sails from Southampton to Norway. The stormy sky and the oil refinery at Fawley give a dramatic backdrop.
