    Welcome
    Hello everybody. My name is Matt, and I'm a keen railway enthusiast and railway employee. I've been taking digital photos since 2002, but things really kicked off with the purchase of my first digital SLR Canon. I started with a 300D, then 400D and now use a 450D. Lenses I have used range from the Sigma 10-20mm HSM, Canon 18-55mm EF-S, Tamron 17-50mm f2.8, Canon 28-135mm IS USM, Canon 70-300mm IS USM. I don't have photo purchasing enabled because uploading the high quality images would eat my Quota.

    If you see anything that takes your fancy, then get in contact with me via the message button, leave the details, as any shot is available for printing if required.

    Enjoy the site.. Matt

    About Me
    Hello to all visitors! My name's Matt and I'm a rail enthusiast and employee, now working for Cross Country. I have worked as a guard on the railway since 15th September 1997 and have always had a keen interest in all things rail (expect maybe single axle units!!). My photography really kicked off in 2002 with the purchase of my first digital camera, what leaps and bounds we have experienced since then eh?
    I hope you enjoy the site and find something that evokes memories!
