Hi All

My Name is Dave Bowden, and we moved to live in North Cambridgeshire two years ago.

I have been Modelling the Great Western in O Gauge for the last 30years.
I'm a member of the Gauge O Guild, GWS, GWSG, and have become a member of the Kings Lynn O Gauge Group (Kloggies).

I'm also on the RMweb were I go under the name of kada33.

I have been involved in Steam Photo charters since 2008 at a lot of Heritage Railways, where I photograph the rolling stock for modelling reference as well as the Loco of the day!

Dave.

Loco's, Layouts & Stock of any discription would be of interest Dave:thumbs:......I would love to see any Syphon G, Fruit D, 6 Wheel Milk Tanks & Toad Brake Vans, but anything would I'm sure be of interest;)

Hi All

I have spent quite a lot of time going through the Gallery looking at members photos since I joined this week, just to make sure I don't tread on any ones toes!

I have been on a lot of photo charters in the last 5 years which give one the advantage of getting shots of a wide variety of Locos and rolling stock.

I did note in the Gallery photos of the LNER special at Barrow Hill Roundhouse in April 2012, I was also there on a charter which went on till around 10-pm.

Hi Phill

I found this photo of a Fruit D the quality is not very good I'm afraid, as this was taken in 1978 with a compact camera. This is on the SVR.

There is a photo of a Fruit D in the Gallery by 28Ten. I have similar photo of the same Fruit D on the SDR but it isn't as good as his.
