SUMMARY:A Lifetime of Railway Photography
DESCRIPTION:Not quite a lifetime\, John took his first picture at the age of nine using his mother’s rather ancient folding camera. He was already interested in railways as most boys of his generation were\, where the passion came from for recording what he saw on film is lost in the mists of time but it’s been continuous ever since he acquired a simple Ilford camera for his twelfth birthday. He began to realise that the steam railway that he was privileged to grow up with was fast disappearing giving him greater impetus to carry on\, the only limiting factor was finance as it all had to be funded from pocket money and the proceeds of a paper round. Later when he started work he acquired more sophisticated equipment and recorded the end of steam on the Southern and in the NW and following that the preservation scene right up to the present day. He hopes there will be something of interest to everyone. If you remember his previous presentation to the branch\, you will very much make this a date for your diary.

SUMMARY:Over The Mendips
DESCRIPTION:The Somerset & Dorset Railway originally ran from Burnham-on-Sea to Wimborne\, \nlinking the Bristol and English Channels. In 1874 an extension opened from \nEvercreech Junction over the Mendip Hills to link with the Midland Railway at Bath \nwhich immediately became the main line. Passenger trains included through \nexpresses from the Midlands and North to the South Coast until 1962\, freight saw \ncoal and stone from the Mendip collieries and quarries\, before finally closing as a \nthrough route in 1966. This illustrated talk marks 150 years since the Bath \nextension’s opening and contains a selection of historic pictures showing the \nconstruction\, doubling and operation of the line from the archives of the Somerset & \nDorset Railway Trust as well as images of the infrastructure still remaining along the \nroute. \nThe presenter\, Mike Beale is descended from 3 generations of S&D railwaymen\, was \nborn in Bath and has worked for British Rail and an international railway consultant. \nHe has been a member of the Somerset & Dorset Railway Trust since 1974\, was \nchairman from 1985 to 1991 and a Trustee from 1999 until 2016. \n
