Thank you Steve,

I had not been here before, but always keen to try something new, (and get inside the catenary masts) I gave it a go. It might have been different taken from the opposite side (photographers were split 50 - 50 between both sides), but seeing a local train was due on the left hand track at exactly the same time, I played safe!
I'll try it again I think! Maybe next week! (Depending on weather)

Thanks Steve,

but rather disappointingly the paper version only printed it very small.. Usually they give my pics quite a bit of space..

(Maybe cost reduction of the amount of paper they use!)

Merci Annabelle

Je suis très heureux que vous ayez apprécié. Nous organisons des trains d'excursion à vapeur de temps en temps, en particulier à Noël. Ils ont certainement l'air plus agréable avec beaucoup de fumée!

Meilleurs vœux

Vielen Dank, Frank

Ich bin sehr glücklich, dass es Ihnen gefallen hat. Von Zeit zu Zeit fahren wir Dampfzug-Züge, besonders zu Weihnachten. Sie sehen auf jeden Fall schöner aus mit viel Rauch!

Schöne Grüße

Thank you Jaap,

I did keep the long lens on to try and compress the distance to show the curves..
I am happy that you appreciated my efforts!

Hi Rosa ,
Your visit in much appreciated. Thank you!
I am so happy that you like the scene. As you will have realised, there is a lot of planning goes into these steam railway pictures.. The train passes in a few seconds, so it has to be right first time. This picture was used by the local paper..
Best Wishes, and a Good Weekend,
Peter
