Visited with none other than my railway-trespassing-partner-in-crime, my Dad! lol
Contrary to last year when it pissed down with rain and the year before being crammed full of people, this year was brilliant really - so few people which meant better pictures, less guards, hence access more areas! The place is basically a live ex-MOD site yet considering it's been decomissioned there's LOADS of derelict buildings left onsite, albeit scattered about everywhere (inaccessible - too far away). I'm not too sure whether they're interesting though. Lots of derelict train porno too, which I love - some to be scrapped, others to be reinstated believe it or not! Given the security situation in some areas though it seems that some of the stock (Class 31s as far as I could see) have had a minor pikey attack! Boo!
Like I said it was a cracking weekend but there's one thing I regret, and that's not taking pics of the derelict sleeper which was IMMACULATE inside - still full of old leaflets and it STILL had beds in the berths! Absolute cracker!
Anyway here we go. I only took pics of locos 'cause wagons and coaches (generally - except sleepers lol) are boring!
