    Hi, Happy new year to all,
    I had another day over on the SVR to catch the last of the festive season trains before the line is closed for track repairs at Hampton Lode.
    I still did'nt manage to get up that end of the line though! But I visited a few locations near Bewdley I've not been to before!
    Hope you enjoy.
    http://rickeborallphotography.fotopic.net/ for those interested!
    Regards....RICK

    Lovely set of photos Rick. I'm interested what equipment and settings you use to take your pan shots - such as the one taken of 42968?

    Cheers

    Hi Gents,Thanks for your comments! Glad you enjoyed the photos.
    In answer to your question Craig. I use a Nikon D2X with a Nikkor ED AF-S VR 70--200mm 2.8G Lens.
    That shot was taken Hand held in Manual program 1/60 at f7.1 -1/3 EV. Focal Length 150mm Hope that helps!
    Best regards...RICK
