From time to time, I publish blog a day for a limited period.
In the past it has been at a holiday time or to report on the Coach and Bus show at the NEC.
So for no other reason that it is Easter and maybe we all need a bit of cheering up, I will publish this blog today (Easter Saturday) and further blogs on Easter Sunday and Monday.
I had been wondering what to publish when out of the blue came images from friends Peter Rose and Stuart Montgomery.
It is their work then that will be on show over the next few days and of course with their co-operation and permission.
Both of these gentlemen are supporters of the ‘Buses/Trains in the environment’ concept so out of respect for their views, the images have not been cropped by myself.
Peter’s first contribution to this exercise is a selection of Class 40 locomotive images taken in 1975.
At that time Coronavirus would have been the the stuff of science fiction nightmares and social distancing was unheard of.
