Disk 09: 200 Preserved diesel loco photos at heritage gala events 2008-2017

Disk nine – 200 photographs of British

preserved diesel gala days 2008 – 2017.

This CD features 200 full colour high resolution photos of preserved diesel locomotives from a wide variety of special gala events across the southern half of the UK (mostly) over a 10 year period.  There are no multiple units and no steam locomotives on this disk, just pure nostalgic diesel action!

• 200 digital photos of locomotives at diesel gala events both in action and as static exhibits.  Angles of view include from platforms, line-side, overbridges and riding behind.

• Classes include:  02, 03, 04, 08, 10, 14, 17, 20, 24, 25, 26, 27, 31, 33, 35, 37, 40, 41, 42, 45, 46, 47, 50, 52, 55, 56 and 73.

• 13 different preserved railway locations:  Avon Valley, Battlefield Line, Bluebell, Dean Forest, Gloucestershire and Warwickshire, Great Central, Llangollen, Mid-Hants, Nene Valley, Pontypool and Blaenavon, Severn Valley, South Devon, plus West Somerset.

• Also includes the Deltic 50 event at Shildon in 2011, HST 40 event at St. Philips Marsh Depot in 2016, plus six photos of classes 52 and 55 on mainline railtours.

• All photos are my own work using either an Olympus E-500 digital SLR or a Nikon D3300 digital SLR.

• All photos are digital JPEG format at either 8 or 13 Megapixels depending on which camera was used.  8Mp might not seem much by today’s standards, but that’s the technology we had back in 2008 before I upgraded to a newer camera a few years later.

• Every photo comes with a caption stored in the “file properties” detailing the locomotive, location and exact date, the captions do not appear on the photos themselves as this would spoil them.  All captions are also stored in a single file of .DOCX, .RTF and .PDF formats so you can view/print them out for the whole disk.

• I use quality Memorex brand disks, NOT cheap “shop’s-own” disks.

• This CD comes with a colour sleeve, colour artwork label and a slim-line plastic case.

• I have been selling these disks since 2007 with hundreds of happy customers!

• I have been an amateur photographer using SLR cameras for over 30 years, I do not take pictures with mobile phones, tablets, instamatic or point-and-shoot etc.

• I retain copyright over all images.  These photos are NOT for resale or distribution in any format, but you may print them out for yourself if you wish.
