Rail Scene Ireland in London

Thanks for sharing, some good ones in that collection.

Last time I stopped out West, I was woken by Boeing seemingly bringing their entire fleet into Heathrow at 5 in the morning!

Were you in or around Osterley? I've stayed in the Osterley Park Hotel a few times now, the rooms facing the A4 are just so noisy at that time of the morning!

I ought to be used to it living where I do surrounded by RAF bases, but it does me every time I stay there!

Hi all,
Spent the last two days travelling around London by train, tram and tube. Highlights of the trip include 67008 on the VSOE at Victoria, 59s, 66s and 90s on Freightliner and EWS trains at Stratford, a 357 in NatEx/c2c livery, and 313s and 378s on the North London line.
I spent most of the second day travelling aroudn my tube, on the Circle (when it was running!), District, Northern, Jubilee, Hammersmith & City and Metropolitan lines. Also some non-train shots are included:

I thought I was doing well with all that but then at Stratford steam loco 34067 Tangmere turned up on a charter:

And then one of the newest locos in Britain made an appearance, General Electric/Freightliner Powerhaul 70001:

All in all, a good trip!

Enjoy!

Hi all,
Not exactly London, but a few weeks ago while trying to get back from Berlin I passed through Paris where I travelled on one of their new metro trains:

Collection, as large as it is, also has shots from metros in Germany.
