Starting the Climb

Starting the Climb
Back to the archives again,
From a standing start at Bishop's Lydeard and emerging from under the road bridge before starting the climb up to Crocombe Heathfield Station, (The station stands at the highest point on the line, just under 400 feet (120 m) above sea level, approached by a 1:86 gradient either side) The locomotive is Ex GWR 2-8-0 2857, West Somerset Railway westbound passenger service,

I prefer the image large

Good weekend to all.

Ooh, I do like a nice choo-choo train :-))

Such a fantastic shot Roger..........you've captured the atmosphere beautifully - the sunshine glinting off the train, the steam and smoke and the glimpse of flames from the fire box.......as well as the rail disappearing into the distance.

Well worth viewing large. 10/10 for this one!
