Sometimes its nice to imply location in a photograph. Here, I was really just interested in making a dramatic image of the equipment. It’s not often you get to experience a modern 4-8-4 roaring at you at 40 mph!

Thanks to Pat Yough and Vic Stone for their assistance in finding this location along the Southern Railway.
