My dear Füsun
Thank you very much!
I am so happy that you like the scene.
Two years ago it looked a little different.. www.ipernity.com/doc/2247998/44562668
But I seem to remember some phone calls from this spot....!
Love Peter

A fine scene Peter. I seem to remember having poor weather on our visit here many years back but we did take a train ride too, perhaps on this line. Well done ~ Herb

Hi Herb ,
Thank you so much for your very kind visit.
I am pleased you found it interesting.
There is only one preserved railway in the area, so if you took a ride from Corfe Castle to Swanage, then you passed this spot!!
Best Wishes,
Peter

Hi Annemarie,
Thank you very much!

Steam trains run on this line, but I thought the diesel made a nice picture with the yellow straw... Glad you like it.
Best Wishes,

Hi Peter .

Enchanting panoramic view, with such amazing depth, of a summer day in its peaceful golden and green tones, which seem to be reflected even on the steam train ,slowly, running along!

My best wishes.

Hi Bea ,
Thank you so much for your very kind visit.
I'm pleased that you have enjoyed it!
It is always a bonus to get the castle in the background! Maybe one day some nice lighting too!!
Best Wishes and Happy Halloween!

Hi Val ,
Thank you very much!
I am pleased you found it interesting.
With any (decent) railway picture you can guarantee that the photographer checked the timetable to see what was running where and when. then figured out something about lighting, long before they even got there!
Best Wishes, and a Good Weekend,
Peter

Hi Roger,
Thank you so much for your very kind visit.
I'm pleased that you have enjoyed it!
I don't usually do diesels, but I thought the yellow front end might match the straw bales well..
Best Wishes, and a Good Weekend,
Peter

Have seen some time ago a Youtube video, on board of a train from Swanage to Wareham, it was the reopening of the line in 2017.
