Takes on a Train (September challenge)

[AJQS]

Alan will probably recognise these. Both taken at Threlkeld (second engine was there for the steam gala)

Second one definitely, Penrhyn Quarry's Bronllwyd looking very flash in her original livery - is the first one a Kerr Stuart Wren?

I really want to go to Threlkeld, I keep seeing pics from charters and it looks like somewhere where I'd never put the camera down!

Several times I've looked at your monthly thread and thought I would post a photo.

Good on ya' , a good set there Iain.

Smashing photos on here for the theme Chris ......I don't think I have much in the way of trains, but I have a couple of ideas I'll try out before the month is up.

I've really enjoyed looking at everyone's contributions

Looked through, and I don't have one train photo but I've really enjoyed everyone else's. Hopefully I can get stuck in on next months topic Chris.

Justine I love that one, there's so much going on in there ... what a fascinating shot.
