A Hitchin & Welwyn Garden City branch presentation by John Day.
A presentation taken year on year for the first 25 years of the 21st Century looking at everyday service trains, passenger, freight, locomotive units, both diesel and electric multiple units that run regularly in public and freight timetabled service.
Livery and franchise changes will feature without delving into statistical analysis. Special liveries will feature where appropriate and space within each year allow. The images featured will be from personal travels around the UK, especially as the network moved from loco hauled passenger trains to set formations built around the InterCity 125 staple. It is hoped you will enjoy the variety presented and my apologies if I might have missed, or not photographed one of your favourites. So much has changed this century, with much more to come as the Department for Transport take the franchised railway back into public ownership.

Doors open 13:30 for a 14:00 start.
