upneysidings Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 I can't understand why it is that I seem to be the only one who waxes lyrical over small steam in a big landscape. I've always loved this shot of a southbound Stanier 5MT scuttling southwards at Salterwath Bridge over the River Lune just south of Tebay in August 1964. This view is still possible, but sadly only from a moving vehicle on the southbound M6. Stanier 8F class 2-8-0 no. 48111 at Ais Gill on May 28th, 1967. The car seems to be an Austin A40 hatchback Stanier 8F class 2-8-0 no. 48327 has assistance from an unidentified classmate in this impressive picture as the pair storm up Chequerbent incline. An unidentified Stanier Jubilee class 4-6-0 at Wigston South Junction on an unspecified date. 11 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold phil_sutters Posted January 20, 2016 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 20, 2016 (edited) Another of Dad's. Strangely he doesn't record the loco's name or number. Edited January 20, 2016 by phil_sutters 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bike2steam Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 I can't understand why it is that I seem to be the only one who waxes lyrical over small steam in a big landscape. It's sad really, but I suppose many, like me, who don't have any interest in anything 'non-steam', only took pics of steam, pre-preservation, in built up areas, but I do like those shots of yours. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold phil_sutters Posted January 20, 2016 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 20, 2016 (edited) Three slightly urban landscapes - Newport is the 'capital' of the Isle of Wight and the backdrop of the first of Dad's shots is definitely urban. A rather more suburban landscape at Paignton. I am not sure that Conwy would like to be called urban, but there is a lot of the 'built environment' in the next shot.

raymw Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 2005 - my daughter had a flat near Clapham Junction, more like landscape in the lines. There's a bit of reflection since took through window. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
raymw Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 5th September 2004, Dunball. This view now obstructed by Morrison's warehouse... I've been going through some of my older snaps, as you may tell - Picasa is pretty useful 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a bit of reflection since took through window. DSCN0886.jpg I once had a meeting in No.1 London Bridge which overlooks the station of the same name. My shot is also through double glazing. I think that there is just about enough non-railway landscape to creep in here. Certainly the trains are not the centre of attention. After all, this is what passes for landscape in central London!

Dad wasn't a great one for locos in the landscape. There are some where the surroundings are quite picturesque, although the train is definitely the focal point. I'll try one or two and hope I haven't pushed the boundaries too far. Regards Phil. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
raymw Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Dunball again at five past four, yesterday - mobile phone - but you can't see much, even after over-sharpening, so I cropped and enlarged and shown as second pic.
