Welcome to my photos of trains from around the Anglia area of the United Kingdom. To find out a little about me, go to the 'About me' section below this minbox. I am not the best photgrapher to grace the Earth but I try my best to capture the Railways of Britain as they are today.
_____________________________________________
The equipment that I currently use for taking my pictures is a Fujifilm Finepix A800 with 10 megapixels, this is also used for videoing but in September I will have a camcorder. Not sure which one but if you have any good ideas, contact me on youtube (the link is on my links minibox).
_____________________________________________
None of the photos that I take are taken in positions where I am considered trespassing on any part of the railway. I do not believe in trespassing either as it is an offence.

To get in touch with me, email me at: mappman1000@googlemail[dot]com or you can pm me on my youtube page. Please remove brackets and their content and replace with a dot. This prevents spammers and automatic spam robots form spamming me. Oh yeah, I do not tollerate spamming and over commenting on any of my photos. |

Hi and welcome to my website, 66541 fotopic. I am a 15 year old train enthusiast from Trimley near Felixstowe in Suffolk. This is a new an inproved version of my old fotopic, mappman1000.
_____________________________________________
I am mainly located on the Felixstowe Branch Line and the Northern Section of the Great Eastern Main Line (North of Colchester). However, I do venture off into other places too. My local station is Trimley which has its fair share of action with class 66's from Freightliner, GBRF and DB Schenker. National Express East Anglia also run a local service between Ipswich and Felixstowe operated with a Class 153, Class 156 or sometimes even a Class 170. At Ipswich, where I photograph alot more, there are Class 90's, Class 86's, Class 66's, Class 47's and more units. Planned trips are in the planned trips of this site further down the page.
