Fabulous capture and a real beauty of a shot! I used to have friends at Button Oak, between Bewdley and Highley, and not far from this line but we never got to see it.
Best wishes,

Hi Andy,
Your visit is much appreciated. Thank you!
I'm pleased that you have enjoyed it!
You have mentioned your Button Oak friends before. I am sure that if you went to see them, you must have visited Bewdley, and maybe walked down this street...
Best Wishes,
Peter

Hi Peter.

Amazing picture where the train seems to slip silently so as not to disturb the stillness of this road portrayed in admirable depth in its meaningful contrast of tones.

Best wishes and have a very nice week .

Hi Bea ,
Thank you very much!
I'm pleased that you have enjoyed it!
What impressed me here is the look of the old days, when almost every town had a steam railway almost running through the streets, passed the back to back terraced houses...
Best Wishes,
Peter

Hi Peter, that's an amazing shot! I wonder if it makes the houses shake! I love the sound of a train, whether steam or otherwise, but this might be too close for me :))

Best wishes, Rosa.

Hi Rosa,
Your visit is much appreciated. Thank you!
I am so happy that you like the scene.
In reality, it is hardly noticable. Perhaps the perspective makes it look closer than it is. I stayed in this hotel a few years ago when I had to be at the station early next morning for 'locomotive duties' ( www.ipernity.com/doc/2247998/44664808 a smaller version of the one in this picture), and it was really nice and peaceful..

Best Wishes,

Hi Peter. this scene looks like it could be many places up here near Manchester too, but the days of steam railways have truly gone in most places up here. Once again you have managed to capture a time of nostalgia, whether it be from yesteryear or yesterday. Coincidentally, we were only watching my home made movie of the lines around Bewdley station on Friday night. Well done.

Best Wishes, Herb

Hi Herb,
Thank you so much for your very kind visit.
I am so happy that you like the scene.
Perhaps somewhere I was inspired by the very early opening scene from Coronation Street, with the railway viaduct at the end of a street full of terraced houses.. To me, that sort of scene deserves smoke!
Best Wishes,
Peter

Thank you Steve,

Glad you like it, and well spotted on the pub.. Behind me (and a little closer) is another pub, with a rather politically incorrect name. I did think of taking a photo here, but the sign is not pictorial (only text), unlike the one of the same name in Caernarfon which has a few rather graphic pictures of 'Bachgen Du'. (although replaced with more socially acceptable versions in recent years).

Best Wishes
Peter
