A very happy christmas to everybody

Thanks for all the support, for sending me pics, taking part in the forums and for, well, just for coming back

Hope you all get some nice pressies, especially James, who could really do with a digital camera

Take care everyone.

ps. I'm not at work until the new year now, so any updates will probably be few and far between.

And a scanner! Santa wasn't listening though

Merry Christmas to you too!

I found a nice pictures site: http://www.sharpos-world.co.uk/mainindx ... 1/tm-1.htm

Excellent stuff

There's a pic on that site which shows shunting at the east end of Temple Meads that makes me kick myself.

I used to spend most of my time at TM at the other end, watching the comings and goings of Bath Road, but I would occasionally wander down that end and watch the shunting of the goods yard, being particularly fascinated by the steepness of the incline and the driving of the 08s to get a rake of vans up it. I took quite a few pics too, but despite many searches to find them I've not been able to.

Happy New Year everybody.

And Happy Christmas still - it's only day 10 of 12!
