I thought I'd say goodbye to one of my favourite colourful trains.
The South West Railway's red Class 455 fleet has been in service for 42 years & will be replaced by new Arterio trains.

There is a story that Alberto Morrocco's wife Vera, seen here at the breakfast table in the 1950s, was constantly searching for missing bowls, plates and jugs that had been commandeered for a still life, what her husband called a more important purpose than originally intended.

During the 19thC there was a fascination in Britain for Egypt. When a terrace in Richmond Avenue at Islington was constructed in 1841, pairs of obelisks and sphynxes were added to guard the entrance to each house.
