Puffing up the slope letting out graet steam. As Duncan says, very charming shot, David. Lovely colours and compo and the couple left behind as bonus. I love it!

The billowing steam is superbly rendered, very harmonious composition

Superb steam train shot. I don't normally get excited by train pictures, but this one is special. The two people in the far distance add an extra element.

An eye catching image of great quality. Would make a fabulous post card for the steam preservation society.
