BR Class 31 Diesels

My class 31 photographs - well some of them - mostly taken between 1979 and 1985. Whilst I was always very keen on 37s and 40s, it was 31s that did it for me !

About Me

I live near King's Lynn and have been interested in trains and buses since I was 4 - am now 50 and according to my work colleagues, should be old enough to know better ! I am particularly interested in heritage diesel locomotives and the First buses fleet.

Location: King's Lynn
