Taunton Trains
Current rail news and photos, plus plenty of archived train observations, photos and news from the Taunton, Somerset area.
Six Bells Junction
An essential resource documenting all known British railtours over the decades.
Freightmaster
I don’t leave home without it! Freightmaster gives you up-to-date freight timetables for major key rail locations in Britain, many linked to Realtime maps. The forum is a wealth of daily updates, TOPS lists and news. Sign up, well worth the money!
Jay Hartley
Flickr site for Cumbrian-based photographer Jay. Superb photography!
Class 33 Crompton
I’ve used this website for its useful historical data concerning those Southern stalwarts - the Sulzer Type 3s, the Class 33. Thoroughly recommended!
Class 47 loco data
Another excellent resource that has helped me trace individual histories of those much-maligned but so prevalent Type 4s that were part of the everyday scene on BR during the 1980s! Recommended!
Class 37 English Electric Type 3s
An impressive resource for everything you need to research the life of these popular locomotives. An excellent help for me whilst compiling my website captions.
Railcar.co.uk
A remarkable resource of information, data, technical and historical information for first generation diesel multiple units. I’ve used it a lot to help identify and trace the history of many DMUs featured on my website. Recommended!
BR Open Days
Remember the excitement building up before you headed off to a British Rail open day? An officially authorised opportunity to be on the wrong side of the fence! I do. This invaluable resource will bring back the memories. It’s helped me check facts whilst preparing my website.
