Pics of the work being done to restore Class 50's 50029 Renown & 50030 Repulse by the Renown Repulse Restoration Group on Peak Rail, Matlock, from the derelict hulks they were when we bought them from Operation Collingwood in 2002, to the present.

A few years ago I was given a load of photos of stored & withdrawn locos, with a few pics of preserved ones thrown in. Many of the locations & dates are unknown, so again if anyone recognises anywhere, please contact me via the 'leave a message' button at the bottom of the front page. I have added some of my own pics, which are annotated MP.

This is a selection of pics of locos in main-line service I have either taken myself from the late 80's onwards or ones I have acquired over the years. My photos have MP in the caption. If anyone recognises a location, please let me know via the 'leave a message' button at the bottom of the front page.

I think I must have hibernated between 1989 & 1993, either that or I didn't go anywhere interesting. Anyway, here's some pics of my outings from 1993 to now. **Updated January 2009**

This is a selection of some of the things I did during the Eighties. My photos from before 1983 are at present conspicuous by their absence. Some of the shots in this collection aren't as sharp as they might be, but I was using a cheap & cheerful Zenit-E back then, so there you go.
