    Welcome
    Hello and a warm welcome to your first port of call for retro east anglian railway pictures, this is my second fotopic site the first being the popular jons-trains.fotopic.net, due to poss feedback given to a retro batch of pictures put on my other fotopic site, i thought i would dedicate a gallery to a large collection of 35mm scanned pctures, you are about to go back in time to the 1980s and 1990's when East Anglia was abundant in livery styles and classic diesel traction ruled the rails and British Rail was still in charge of britains railways.

    This gallery has mostly pictures taken at Norwich Thorpe stn and Peterborough you will see the changing skyline of Norwich before the coming of the riverside developement.

    please feel free to comment on the pictures, if you wish for copys please get in touch and i will help out, this gallery has been put together after many comments left in my main fotopic site jons-trains.fotopic.net

    many thanks for your continued support.

    About Me
    i will be 37 this year, i am Married to sarah who i have been with since 1990 and have two boys, one aged 9 (Matthew) and the other 3 (Adam) both like trains!! . i have been into the railway scene since around the age of 8, as my grandfather regaled me with storys of the railways after that i was hooked, he was a driver for BR Eastern region for 50 years and he got me interested in trains, two other members of my family were drivers also so really i was born into railways. I took up serious spotting in the early 80's as a young spotty teenager, i always carried a camera for 'point and shoot' shots. I left the 'scene' in the late 80's to chase women and to pop my 'cherry', i got into classic cars and restored a Ford capri 2.8i and showed it round the country at classsic car shows but i missed the railways and came back into the hobby in 2001, i took up serious railway photography in 2002 and went digital in 2004. I have a large interest in railways modern and old.
    I currently work on the railway in preservation and am an active member of the Mid Norfolk Railway working within the operations/shunting dept and also im the Publicity officer (I.T) and working member of the class 56 group, my other interests are Military history since WW2, reading and music as i was a mobile DJ for 4 years!!, i also enjoy a beer or two (maybe 3!!)

    Location:Norwich, Norfolk
