Some dodgy under and over exposed photos from my youth.

[Andrew Thompson]

Some of these are ones that I processed so I think I can revisit at some time and improve.

The first ones are taken late 70s South of Preston.

My mate and I used to go to Paddington to look at Westerns, we used to get the number of the engine and ask the drivers if they would sign their name next to the number. One driver invited us into the cab,then telling tales of his time with steam ( fabulous). He took us to the end of the platform it made our day.

Interesting photos but, as you've already mentioned, they need to be full size. They can also be improved with just a bit of (even my unskilled) manipulation:
