Plymouth.... Title: Re: While clearing out images on my camera ... another easy 'where was I that day?' Post by: JayMac on September 07, 2014, 13:27:58 Chippenham?
Title: Re: While clearing out images on my camera ... another easy 'where was I that day?' Post by: Chris from Nailsea on September 07, 2014, 16:29:45 Plymouth would indeed have been too easy: Chippenham it was! ;) :D ;D
Title: Re: While clearing out images on my camera ... another easy 'where was I that day?' Post by: JayMac on September 07, 2014, 16:59:02 Educated guess by looking at the date stamp and then looking at your posting history for around that date, for some clues as to where you may have been.
That's allowable resourcefulness rather than cheating, right? :P ;) ;D Title: Re: While clearing out images on my camera ... another easy 'where was I that day?' Post by: bobm on September 07, 2014, 17:00:35 You think his technical expertise stretches to setting the date on a camera? ;D ;D

I was actually on my way to Melksham, to join the excellent carnival procession there on that afternoon - see http://www.firstgreatwestern.info/coffeeshop/index.php?topic=13900.msg157215#msg157215 ;D Quote That's allowable resourcefulness rather than cheating, right? :P ;) ;D Debatable - but I did deliberately leave the date stamp in the picture, so I'll give you the benefit of any doubt. ;D You think his technical expertise stretches to setting the date on a camera? ;D ;D I'll remember that, next time you ask me to help you with posting something ... :o ::) Title: Re: While clearing out images on my camera ... another easy 'where was I that day?'

But not Plymouth! Title: Re: While clearing out images on my camera ... another easy 'where was I that day?' Post by: Chris from Nailsea on September 07, 2014, 18:08:46 Similarly, I have pictures of the Devon & Cornwall Community Rail Partnership unit at Bristol Temple Meads, but nowhere in ... err, Devon or Cornwall. ::) :o ;D

EXACLTY as it should be - advertising around the area. Please label up a 153 as "TransWilts" ... then run it everywhere and anywhere - and only occasionally on the TransWilts! Title: Re: While clearing out images on my camera ... another easy 'where was I that day?' Post by: grahame on September 07, 2014, 21:41:27 How much does a set of vinyls cost? The only reference I can find is
Quote Each set of vinyl stickers cost about ^40,000. at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Rail_Class_357and that's for a 4 coach train. It also says "citation needed"!

It also says "citation needed"! I've found by use of Google that a full wrap for a double decker bus will cost ^2500 + vat. Would a train really be 16 times the cost of doing a bus? Not that much bigger. Title: Re: While clearing out images on my camera ... another easy 'where was I that day?' Post by: Chris from Nailsea on September 08, 2014, 01:02:21 Without blatantly advertising the name of the business, I can state here that we can (and do) update the vinyls on our Mercedes Sprinter vans for a considerably lesser sum. :-X
