Neil,
Thanks for these new ones.
Chance observations while looking at them : -
- 1/7 here http://railway-photography.smugmug.com/ ... /i-vBkjWBj is a Down train at New Barnet.
- 6/6 here http://railway-photography.smugmug.com/ ... /i-fzHFVNj is, I think, on Langley troughs, passing the site of what is now a more modern overbridge carrying Six Hills Way in Stevenage: A Down train I think.

Spot on, Steve. A down train at the north end of Langley troughs it is, coming under the old Norton Green Lane bridge. In the distance through the mist, you can just spot the top of the water softener tank that sat on the west side of the line just north of the Langley bridge.

Thanks giner. I was pretty sure but don't like to write over-confidently if I'm even a little uncertain.
That's weird though - had listed about another 5 location identifications for Neil and was sure I'd included them in my post, but they've somehow vanished!
