SUMMARY:25 Years of Derek Cross Diesels 1959 to 1984
DESCRIPTION:Physical meeting at Shenfield Parish Hall which will also be available on Zoom as a Hybrid Meeting. \nDavid Cross will present some more of his father’s slides which this time will feature diesels photographed in England between the years 1959 and 1984. \nDerek was a prolific photographer in the sixties and seventies but unlike many of his peers\, he continued to take railway pictures after 1968 despite the demise of steam. The early 1960’s saw large numbers of very short life diesels and photos of many of these long forgotten classes are included in David’s presentation showing them at work and not just in a rusting line awaiting the cutter’s torch!  Diesel locos really got into their groove in the late 1960s and were to be found on all freight workings and away from the electrified lines\, pretty much all long distance passenger services. Whilst many of the small BR modernisation prototype fleets were withdrawn by the 1970s\, a great number of classes survived into the 1980s amd 1990s with some classes\, all be it with new engines\, still to be found on the network today.

SUMMARY:The Monochrome Model Railway
DESCRIPTION:Physical meeting at Shenfield Parish Hall which will also be available on Zoom as a Hybrid Meeting. \nRailway photographers often have their step-ladders in the boot of their car to allow them to get a few feet higher in search of the ideal image. Tonight’s presentation promises a more lofty view still. This presentation takes the form of a selection of views of the railways in East London & Essex taken from the Historic England Aerofilms collection. These show the railway from a totally different perspective. The illustrations presented here were taken between the 1920s and the 1950s and some show aspects of the lines not normally seen in photographs. \nOur speaker\, Nigel Bowdidge\, has been interested in railways for as long as he can remember. A detailed interest in the railways of East Anglia and East London began when he discovered the maps and photographs in the Essex Records Office and Chelmsford Borough Library when in his teens. Much photography of trains and stations\, both open and closed\, ensued thanks to his first full-time job at Ilford Films. Forty years of commuting to the City meant he could keep an eye on developments on the railway. Now semi-retired\, he finds there is enough railway information on the internet to keep the mind active!

SUMMARY:Middle East Travels
DESCRIPTION:Physical meeting at Shenfield Parish Hall which will also be available on Zoom as a Hybrid Meeting. \nUnlike Europe\, the Middle East is a bit of a desert (no pun intended) for railways. However there are systems in some countries and Iain’s presentation will cover three of these namely: Israel\, Jordan and Saudi Arabia. \nIain is a South Essex member. His photos are always interesting and of excellent quality. He is a regular contributor of images to the major rail publications.

SUMMARY:40 Years of Preserving Deltics
DESCRIPTION:Physical meeting at Shenfield Parish Hall also available via Zoom as a Hybrid \nThe ‘Deltics’ changed the image of East Coast Main Line in the 1960’s and became perhaps the most iconic of the BR Modernisation diesel locomotives. Fortunately a number of these imposing giants survived into preservation\, largely due to the efforts of the Deltic Preservation Group.  Our speaker\, Murray Brown\, has been chairman of the DPS for 30 years\, during which time the society has been on the main line twice\, built its own depot at Barrow Hill and in recent weeks has started up its third Deltic (D9015 Tulyar) after 27 years! The society has recently topped 1\,000 members which makes it one of the most successful locomotive preservation groups. Murray worked for BR for 18 years\, 14 years of which were in the office which ran the Deltics – he was effectively paid to do his hobby!

SUMMARY:On Great Eastern Metals From 1991 to Date
DESCRIPTION:Physical meeting at Shenfield Parish Hall \nOur member\, Geoff Brocket\, is a prolific photographer\, who always seems to be able to get the photos that no one else can. This outing covers photos on the Great Eastern Railway from 1991 to the present day.  Like many of us\, Geoff prefers locos to multiple units so expect to see the whole range of motive power used on this line over the last 25 years or so. \nAs these images are on 35mm slides\, it is not possible to offer this talk via Zoom. \n

SUMMARY:Colchester in the Age of Steam
DESCRIPTION:Physical meeting at Shenfield Parish Hall also available via Zoom as a Hybrid \nColchester is a major railway junction in Essex with much to interest the railway enthusiast. This talk will cover the period up to September 1962 when steam operation ceased through the town. The railway infrastructure in the town included three stations\, all with goods facilities\, a major locomotive depot\, a quay tramway and even a laundry. The area enjoyed a few years of concurrent steam\, diesel and electric operation\, during which a major station reconstruction was completed. \nDavid Goodyear has lived in Essex for most of his life and inherited his love of railways from his father\, who was a Senior Marine Engineer based at Parkeston Quay. Although living in Dovercourt David attended secondary school in Colchester and has maintained an interest in the railways of both the Harwich and Colchester areas. His career as a Chartered Mechanical Engineer started at Paxman in Colchester working on the HST Valenta engine\, but rapidly moved on to automotive engines at Perkins Peterborough\, and then returning to Essex to work at Ford’s Dunton engineering centre for 25 years before taking early retirement. He now lives near Saffron Walden with his wife\, two horses and a sixteenth century house\, which leaves a little time for continuing to pursue his interest in railways \n

SUMMARY:Who uses the railway?
DESCRIPTION:Physical meeting at Shenfield Parish Hall also available via Zoom as a Hybrid \nPhil’s presentation will begin by describing the Rail Freight Group\, it’s role and membership\, and remind everyone that we all use the railway in our daily lives by virtue of the homes we live in\, the energy we consume and the products we buy as consumers. \nIt will expand to cover the features of an ideal railway network for freight and considers some of the challenges that lie ahead. What will ‘rail reform’ look like from a freight perspective? What investments are needed to meet the growth target? What does the rail freight industry need to do to contribute to a decarbonised supply chain and what can be done in the field of innovation to improve efficiency and safety? \nPhil joined the Rail Freight Group in April 2021\, having spent 16 years with Essex County Council’s education service and prior to that in the fertilizer industry. \nHis passion for transport policy developed through his 39 years as an elected member with Ipswich Borough Council where he drew up the proposal for the Ipswich Freight Chord for the local plan and helped to initiate the East West Rail Consortium of local councils in the 1990s. \nSince joining RFG as the Assistant Policy manager in April 2021\, Phil has been working with Sub National Transport Bodies in helping them develop their transport strategies and priorities for investment as well as preparing policy responses on behalf of RGF members. He has written articles on Rail Freight for magazines including Modern Railways and the Scotsman. He also works with sub-national transport bodies as well as with Network Rail’s route investment teams. \nHe is a member of the Railfuture campaign group.

SUMMARY:Inter-railing for the Older Crowd
DESCRIPTION:Physical/Hybrid Meeting at Shenfield Parish Hall – This meeting will also be avaialble via Zoom \n\nThe title comes from a Facebook page of the same name\, which was a helpful resource in planning Dave’s trips. From April to June 2023 Dave spent three months travelling to 25 European countries\, using a senior Interrail pass. This was a series of short breaks\, 10 in all\, rather than one continuous trip. The images are (nearly) all from the modern European railway scene\, with maps to help with everyone’s European geographical knowledge.

SUMMARY:That Was The Year That Was: 1966
DESCRIPTION:1966 was a busy year for Geoff whilst still a schoolboy\, covering a considerable amount of the country. This includes scenes on various North Wales Narrow Gauge Lines and the Cambrian Coast\, holidays in the north west of England and several RCTS railtours. These include the ’Somerset & Dorset Farewell’\, the ‘Longmoor Military Railtour’ (which ran twice)\, the ‘Eight Counties Railtour’ and ‘East Midlander No. 7’. A couple of visits to Crewe Works\, Southern Region steam and lines out of Marylebone\, a smattering of London Transport steam and scenes around Chester and Birkenhead – the vast majority of photos in colour. \nGeoff Plumb is a lifelong railway enthusiast\, born in Sheffield in March 1949. From an early age he took thousands of photos\, the vast majority in colour\, documenting the decline and fall of steam locomotives. Geoff’s interest in photography led to his forty plus years career in Television\, starting with London Weekend TV as a cameraman in 1968\, later with Granada TV and finally as a freelance ‘lighting cameraman’. Many of Geoff’s photos have been published in magazines such as The Railway Magazine and Steam World\, and in books including Red Panniers – Last Steam on the Underground. The Royal Mail has even used a couple of his photos on specialist stamp issues! Geoff has an active photo gallery website at: www.plumbloco.co.uk where many of his pictures can be seen.

SUMMARY:The New Essex Lines of the GER
DESCRIPTION:Nathaniel has be interested in railways for all of his life. From early days of ‘Thomas the Tank Engine’ he has been hooked on railways and their history. He became a station adopter at Battlesbridge station in 2003. His railway career started with National Express East Anglia as a train dispatcher at Southend Victoria – a period that included the hectic weeks of the 2012 Olympics involving 12 hour shifts. He is a volunteer at Mangapps Railway Museum\, one of the best parts of which is listening to stories of former BR staff who visit the site – probably the best kind of information source.  Since 2010 Nathaniel has been a member of the GER Society and actively helps in providing information for the Society’s publications. He is currently a Customer Service Assistant for TFL working at Stratford Underground station.

SUMMARY:The Lost Railways of Essex
DESCRIPTION:This will be a ‘Double Header’ presentation with contributions from both Tony Crosby and Tim Murphy. \n\n\nTony Crosby will examine the history\, archaeology and heritage of the three main branch lines of the north-west of the county – the Bishop’s Stortford\, Dunmow and Braintree Branch\, the Saffron Walden Branch and the Elsenham & Thaxted Light Railway. He will also look at some of the present structures at risk on both closed lines and on some of the currently operational lines. There may be time to also feature a lost miniature railway! \nTony’s first career was in local authority social services\, towards the end of which time he studied Industrial Archaeology at the Ironbridge Institute. Since graduating he has undertaken historic surveys of industries and individual buildings on industrial sites in Hertfordshire and Essex\, including two railway lines in Essex. He has published a number of articles in Industrial Archaeology Review\, other history journals and has contributed to four books. He is a Council member of the Association for Industrial Archaeology\, having been a former Chairman of the AIA\, and is Chairman of the Essex Industrial Archaeology Group. He retired from the Heritage Lottery Fund in 2013 where he was a policy advisor on industrial\, maritime and transport heritage. \nTim Murphy will outline the history of three branch lines and the existing remnants which survive. The first is a line which was never actually fully realised-the Mistley\, Thorpe and Walton Railway. The second and third are the former Maldon branch lines from Witham and South Woodham. Tim will also examine some of the challenges of preserving and reusing some of this historic infrastructure today. \nTim is an archaeologist and historic building consultant. He manages the Built Heritage and Archaeology Team at Essex County Council. Prior to this he worked in the private sector as a heritage consultant across the UK and Ireland during which time he was involved in the regeneration of many industrial heritage assets. Tim has an interest in railway heritage and his work involves the management of change to assets on existing and former rail infrastructure. \n

SUMMARY:The Great Eastern Railway: ‘Rarely other than Idiosynchratic’
DESCRIPTION:Following the openings\, in successive years\, of the significant London main line stations at London Bridge\, Euston and then Paddington\, there followed a minor station in Mile End as the terminus of a railway planned to link the capital to Norwich via Colchester and Ipswich. Another early railway was to use the same terminus\, but connect London to York via Cambridge and Lincoln. This second line ground to a halt halfway to Cambridge\, but was piggy-backed by the first\, who used it to gain Norwich via Cambridge and Ely\, so deserting the shorter route via Ipswich. A rival concern from Ipswich then rapidly completed the direct route. Not only did East Anglia then have two disjointed main line routes to Norwich\, but also other independent connections and a plethora of idiosyncratic rural branch lines\, all of which amalgamated to form the Great Eastern who soon after opened a prominent terminus in the City. The story is told\, and many of the routes are travelled in this presentation\, one of a trilogy railways in the ‘Eastern Region’. Ray is a retired Chartered Engineer who has undertaken some rail tour management for both LCGB & a worldwide rail travel company. Widely travelled\, much of which has been independent\, around the 5 continents of the world plus Aus and NZ. Visited parts that most others haven’t e.g.\, North Korea\, Pakistan\, Eritrea\, Paraguay\, Syria & Ukraine. His talks use both his own photo material plus items from a photo collection and research from his own comprehensive specialised library.

SUMMARY:Baltic Coast Express - A pictorial journey through Germany and Poland to Finland
DESCRIPTION:In 1990\, Enthusiast Holidays ran a tour called the “Baltic Coast Express” from London via Poland\, the Baltic States of Lithuania\, Latvia and Estonia to Leningrad\, now St. Petersburg. The return journey was via Finland\, Sweden and Denmark. It was only the second major railway tour to Russia and whilst there were a few minor teething problems\, the tour was a success. This presentation starts with images taken between 1975 and 1985 on previous visits to Germany and Poland then follows the tour through Russia to Finland.

SUMMARY:Railway Engineering; A Driver's Eye View
DESCRIPTION:Andy Grimmett started on the railway at Stratford MPD in Sept 1974. By 1979 he had qualified as a driver and progressed through the links driving a large variety of traction. With the partial closure of Stratford Depot in Jan 1994\, he decided to move with 13 other drivers to Ilford Car Sheds where he stayed until retirement in 2022. More often than not\, Andy had his camera with him and was able to capture images that could only be attained by fellow railway employees. The engineering of the railway including many aspects of the infrastructure have been recorded by Andy\, and a selection of these photos will be seen in this presentation\, with some 1960’s views also included.

SUMMARY:Roger Harrison’s East Anglian Railways
DESCRIPTION:Roger Harrison was an avid and loyal member of the Norfolk Railway Society from its inception in 1955 until he passed away in 2010. He was extraordinarily generous to the Society in his will\, not only with a sizeable donation to Society funds\, but also in making a bequest of his LNER photos and negatives to the club’s archive. In 2012 David and his friend and fellow member\, Richard Adderson\, were asked to compile a book of Roger’s images\, funded by his bequest\, so that all the then members could benefit from Roger’s generosity. The show is a slightly abridged version of the book\, but\, nonetheless\, illustrates Roger’s eye for detail alongside his ability to capture and record the general scene up to the end of GE steam in 1962. He was\, in some ways\, fairly parochial in his coverage of East Anglia\, favouring a few locations and ignoring many\, so it was quite a challenge to create a logical narrative from his somewhat disparate range of images. Nonetheless\, the book was well received by the membership and considered to be a worthy tribute to Roger and the memories evoked by his pictures. \nDavid was born in Suffolk\, brought up in the East Midlands\, went to college in the North East\, and spent his working life as an itinerant teacher in Norfolk and Suffolk\, ending up dealing with permanently excluded pupils in Norfolk for the local authority. He took early retirement in 2011 but returned to part-time work in late 2015. \nHe has always had an interest in railways\, and photography became equally as absorbing in 1962 when he was given his first camera. Since then\, via various cameras\, and an embrace of digital photography\, he has accumulated a substantial catalogue of his own images. He has also always taken an interest in images from other photographers\, particularly those with a shared affinity for locations\, aesthetics\, and a healthy disregard for convention. This additional collection has become something of an indulgence (wife would say obsession!)\, aided and abetted\, initially\, by a collection of negatives left in his care\, then by ‘negatives sent on approval’ but\, ultimately\, by the internet! \nDavid is also presently Vice-Chairman of the ‘Bittern Line Community Rail Partnership’ and belongs to two railway photographic circles\, together with umpteen railway societies. He has produced several books and articles\, especially on the former Great Central London extension. He has four sons\, none of whom have the remotest interest in railways or photography! \nEven when we are running Zoom meetings\, the branch still has outgoings. Please consider making a donation to the branch for attending this meeting. It is easy just click on this link and then donate in multiples of £2.00 – just change the quantity if you are able to donate more than £2.00. You can pay by card or by PayPal. \n\n\nThank You

SUMMARY:The Railways of Mid-Anglia\, 1845 to 2023
DESCRIPTION:An exploration of the railway network of Cambridgeshire and Huntingdonshire: how and why it developed in the way it did and the impact the railways have had on the region’s landscape\, towns (particularly the major rail centres of Cambridge\, March and Peterborough)\, industries and agriculture\, as well as motive power and rolling stock. \n\nUntil taking early retirement\, Tony Kirby was Co-ordinator of Strategic and Curriculum Planning for Anglia Ruskin University\, and before that Principal Lecturer in History. He is a past President of the Cambridge Antiquarian Society and Chair of the Cambridge Records Society\, and is Secretary of the Cambridgeshire Association for Local History and the County Advisory Group on Archives and Local Studies. Over the past few years he has written a number of commentaries on old Ordnance Survey maps for Alan Godfrey\, including Brentwood\, Halstead\, Romford and Hornchurch\, and north Thames-side from West Ham to Tilbury. \nFor ten years he edited Nieuwsbrief\, the journal of the Benelux Railways Society. \nHis research interests lie in urban historical geography (especially market towns and  seaside resorts) and although a resident of Cambridgeshire for the past 60 years (and slowly started to appreciate a dieselised ‘Swedey’) his first love remains the North Eastern Railway\, from his youth in North Yorkshire. \nEven when we are running Zoom meetings\, the branch still has outgoings.

SUMMARY:Roaming Around London with a Camera
DESCRIPTION:Those of us who live in London are very lucky for the sheer variety of rolling stock and liveries that can be seen and photographed. This is a quick-fire show of images taken in Greater London over the last two to three years that showcase that variety\, with an emphasis on the new and unusual. Although Geoff did a show under this title at Shenfield a while ago\, this is a fully updated presentation and Geoff has not shown any of these images at the branch previously. \nGeoff is now retired after working for London Underground. He is a familar figure at the branch and is to be found collecting money on the door of evert meeting. In addition to this important branch role he is also the RO Editor for fixtures and adverts and also writes the TfL notes for the Urban Railways section.

SUMMARY:An Evening with Father's Slides
DESCRIPTION:The speaker tonight is David Cross lives locally in Brentwood. He is the son of Derek Cross a photographer who took many photographs and wrote a number of books in the Sixties and Seventies. David now holds his collection. This evening he will show slides of diesels at work on the four BR Regions in England over the 25 years between 1959 and 1984. David says that his Father Derek was unusual in so far as towards the end of steam and after 1968 he actually took pictures of diesels at work. A number of his peers did not bother and David hopes these slides this evening will go some way to filling the gap on early diesels.
