A shortage of skilled fabricators and welders in the heritage railway sector, along with increasingly elderly locomotives suffering from extensive levels of corrosion, has seen Ian Williams create a thriving business helping to transform a number of heritage diesel locomotives. Andy Coward went to meet him and take a look at one of the projects he has recently been working on.
10 Pictures: Bill Pizer
Regular contributor Bill Pizer delves into his collection to bring us his personal selection of the 10 Pictures he believes represent the best of his railway photography, captured over many years at the lineside, and making for another excellent submission to our monthly photographic series.
