TiG - Flying Dutchman

21 Jul 2013 11 2 816
"Flying Dutchman" seen just outside Whitby. I think she is rigged as a topsail schooner here, rather than the two masted schooner rig she had a few years ago when I saw the TallShips at Hartlepool.

TiG - Chain Ferry

21 Jul 2013 2 8 691
Chain Ferry at Reedham - two car (or equivalent) capacity. Despite the caution signs...... at least one boat went through the narrow and closing gap between the ferry and the slipway, and was speeding, whilst we were waiting for "William Riley" to arrive.

TiG - anchored landy

21 Jul 2013 413
Seen outside the Caister Independent Lifeboat Station.

TiG - Windmill and cruisers

21 Jul 2013 438
One of the official places for overnight mooring....... just one of the dozen wind pumps seen between Acle Bridge and Yarmouth. Some are in better condition than others.......although I think the remaining pumps are now powered by electricity rather than the local wind. (Note : there is an off-shore wind farm not that far away)

TiG - open bridge

02 May 2013 1 477
Heard the warning bell, which signals the bridge is to be opened, so took up this vantage point.

TiG - outboards

02 May 2013 1 1 511
The Blue cabins on the stern of "Sandsend" are the biggest "outboards" I've ever seen - combining power and steering.

TiG - Sandsend

02 May 2013 549
"Sandsend" heading out to dump the silt dredged up earlier in the day.

TiG - bridge closing

02 May 2013 1 516
No-one else wants passage to the inner harbour, so they've closed the bridge - well, almost. Note : the rebuilt dolphins.

TiG - Wickham (Deeside)

27 Mar 2013 4 1 541
Wickam PW trolley at Royal Deeside Railway. Parked in the loop / headshunt. Sometimes used to give rides !

TiG - Water Tower @Halti

04 Apr 2013 6 2 493
This is a large water tower, built on substantial stone pillars but back in steam days there was a lot going on here at the station. The "room" underneath has had several uses, but is currently not occupied.

TiG - Haltwhistle footbridge

04 Apr 2013 8 5 598
From the Carlisle bound platform, Station buildings, footbridge and old signalbox.

TiG - 60009

04 Apr 2013 389
Streak powering through Haltwhistle Station. Plenty of people - of all ages - went away happy.

TiG - TR No.7

17 Apr 2013 1 377
Talyllyn Railway's No.7 "Tom Rolt" - what had been a nice and sunny spring day had gone very wet.

TiG - TR flail

17 Apr 2013 2 508
Rail mounted Flail mower on the Talyllyn Railway.

TiG - Corris carriage

16 Mar 2013 358
The elabaorate lining out corner details in this livery for the Corris Railway Carriage is far too upmarket for third class.
