All C&C welcome please.

Just had a thought. Is it a tram or a trolley bus?

Hard to decide where to crop in places like the dairy Barrie. Every crop you try there always seems to be half a pot or something which you would like to have either completely in or completely out. You've handled the light very nicely

The tram is easier. I'd lose the lamp post on the left, the building on the right, and I'd try with and without the couple on the other tram.

I say tram, because I think trolley buses had road tyres and didn't use rails. There was still a few in Newcastle back in the mid 60's when I was a little boy ... lol

I can't decide between 3 & 4

Nice shots
K10D, K5 plus plenty of clueless enthusiasm.

2 & 3 for me are the stand out shots, love them both.

A good set Barrie. Been past the place several times yet never managed the time to visit.

It's a tram, as Alan says, a trolley bus has tires. They are both still in use in Russia and Europe. Trams were in use between Stockton and Middlesbrough many years back

They're very good Barrie and I'm surprised its only your second visit to Beamish, its right on your doorstep. There is so much to photograph there. Interesting to see black and white from you too. And yes, that's certainly a tram not a trolly bus Alan.

It's my own fault, I have a problem with getting things straight, and on this one my composition was too tight for correction

I've put the re-cropped version in the gallery.

I assume it's the yesteryear feeling about the place that seems to fit black and white.

Thank you all.
