Lovely lens. The A version is just as good.
I see you've got this one plumb vertical !
This captures the entire feeling of waiting in the cold for a train that just won't turn up.

Aren't modern railway stations horrible? I bet Victorian railway architects are spinning in their graves. The stark utilitarianism perfectly suits the mood of the shot, though.
Best wishes,

Yes, 'utilitarian' springs to mind. Whatever happened to art in architecture? Although this century has seen a resurgence in 'interesting' buildings.

The irony here is that the original Monkwearmouth Station at Sunderland, built in the 19th century by the North Eastern Railway, still stands next to this modern structure. I believe its a listed building and is used as a museum. 21st century stations, such as the new Crossrail structure at Canary Warf much more artistic than anything built in the late 20th century.Aren't modern railway stations horrible?
