A terrific shot of this beautiful steam train. You certainly found an excellent viewpoint.
Hopefully it won't be too long before we can get back to some normality and it will be lovely to see these magnificent engines in use again

HFF and have a good weekend

It is a very exciting composition, with a good exhaust showing.. Obviously the fireman is on top of his job!

Belated HFF Peter. Not only is there exciting steam train action, but also a plethora of guard rails, fences and similar.
