The railway scene at Eastleigh is in almost constant flux and the scenes presented to the photographer often change. Stuck on the outside the photographer in 2021 must accommodate the recently erected fence (recently in Eastleigh history). This little cameo features Arlington Fleet Services' Class 08 shunter 08567, still in EWS colours and Colas Class 37 37099. 200_4_P1010691CE

In another over the fence shot at Eastleigh, Arlington Fleet Services' Ruston & Hornsby shunter 01508 is seen with emu translator van 68504, formerly a Class 489 (GLV). 200_4_P1010617CE

Eastleigh Works emerged from the shadows of seemingly irreversible railway contraction to become a new attraction for the enthusiast and photographer. On many days of the year, there is a huge variety of stock and locomotives to be seen and I am now used and resigned to making the best use of a long lens to capture the changing scene as well as today's lack of access allows. Direct sunlight did not particularly help the exposure for this shot of Arlington Fleet Barrier Coach 64664 'James D Rowlands'. Just in shot is another vehicle from set T7, 64707 'Sir David Rowlands' and, in the background is Class 08 08790 'Steve Purser'. 200_2_P1020006
