Armstrong Railway Photographic Trust collection
Welcome
Hello and welcome to my site.
This is my attempt to create an online album of transport related photographs. Firstly using my own collection of photographic images and secondly to utilise collections held in the Armstrong Railway Photographic Trust for posterity.

My own photographic images have been taken using a Canon 500N for photographs taken on film and more recently a Canon EOS 300D for digital photographs.
If you wish to contact me regarding any of the images contained within this gallery you can do so via the "Leave a Message" facility.

The Armstrong Trust collection now contains in excess of 200,000 images, held on glass or film. For some time to come the collections held are being sorted and catalogued. Question regarding the trust can be left in the leave a message facilty.
