With his tripod in one hand and holding his trusty Practika SLR in the other, my former teacher and railway enthusiast protégé climbs a steep, grassy and muddy bank at Caerleon to a spot to capture the returning Welsh Marches Express charter. It was him along with Graham Vincent who encouraged a young schoolboy to get out on the lineside and take photographs and document all that was seen and I owe them a lot for that!
