Ivor The Engine


If you live in the UK you cannot failed to have heard of Ivor the Engine which is a children's cartoon done in 2D I used to watch it and was very pleased to see it on our local preserved railway The Cholsey & Wallingford Railway or Bunk as us locals know it.



Below is the first episode for you to watch

Have a great weekend

Tornado


I have only just realised I had taken a photo of Tornado having been thwarted twice before Christmas to get one. Best of all I took this with a compact camera and not my DSLR. This photo was taken back in 2009 as it passed through Cholsey Station.


Since taking this photo it has been repainted Blue. You can read more about Tornado by clicking on the link.

The Princess Elizabeth


On Tuesday 4th December the Cathedral Express Steam Train Princess Elizabeth  cam through Cholsey on it's way to Chester. It was due around 8.03 but ended up half hour late but it was going to see.


The express going through at speed and I might add it made the hair on the back of your neck stand on end.
