This is the original forum of the Bristol Railway Archive that existed between 2003 and 2013. I finally rescued it after it seemed unrecoverable after a large crash. I have made it available for viewing. It is locked, all posts to the new version please!
Use this forum to talk about the railways in and around Bristol, or for any off-topic stuff you want to share. Also request photos and information that you are missing.
As a couple of our members have already found out, a week ago I opened a Flickr account and have been uploading a number of my better photographs from the 1960s.
I use the term "better" in its loosest sense - the Kodak Instamatic did have its considerable limitiations.....
If anybody is interested in taking a look, my Flickr username is Robin Summerhill. Quite a few more should go up in the next few weeks, as I've not quite completed album 2 yet, and there are three more to go!
Some really interesting photos there, Robin. It seems you followed steam both locally and around the country as it steadily declined. We may well have stood next to each other at Normanton, Bath Road and the Isle of Wight ! Thanks for posting them and I look forward to future instalments.
