Morning town ride

Morning town ride
A trip to the SVR (Severn Valley Railway) gives us a chance to see the GWR 1450 at Bridgenorth. A Collett class 0-4-2T designed to work on small branch lines and first started service at Oxford in 1935. After 14,000 miles it has now been sent for its boiler overhaul.
Besides this most charming engine we have the luxuriant fence and lamp which are all in keeping.

Enjoy full size!

HFF, enjoy the weekend.

A really lovely and timeless image Herb. Love the combination of light and steam and the lamp is beautiful.
I do love the title - one of my dad's favourite Seekers' songs. It brought a lump to my throat, so thank you for the memory

HFF and have a good weekend

A lovely capture of this old steamer, Herb, particularly with the light through the steam and smoke, plus the shadows from the fence. HFF and best wishes for the weekend.

The haze of smoke and steam and the lovely light have made this image delightfully atmospheric Herb. For me it brings back childhood memories of travelling between Havant and Hayling on the steam train to go fishing with my Dad.

Thanks for sharing!

Many, many thanks for your generous comments to this. My sincere apologise for not answering earlier. I have just returned from a weeks+ holiday in Scotland with little internet. I shall try to get to see your latest postings too ASAP.

In the meantime, very belated HFF, enjoy the weekend and coming week. Herb
