The Dalesman

With Autumn colours beginning to show, LMS 5XP Class 4-6-0 No. 45699 'Galatea' charges through Lunds with the northbound 'Waverley' rail charter

 

Thank you very much , just a joy to listen to the Jubilee at my location from when she left Appleby !

 

My thoughts exactly. Looked like load 11? Clean exhaust and appeared to be going well. Or alternatively perhaps WRC have invested in some decent black stuff?

 

Nice colours and a very interesting sky...who needs sunshine for good photos?

 

Thank you.

 

Jontie, your sensor needs cleaning.

 

I think what you're referring to may actually be insect life (in the air, not on the sensor). Those damned midges again?

 

No it's dirt on the sensor, if he takes a shot of a light coloured wall and looks at it the spots will still be there.
A blower may get rid if it's just dust on the sensor otherwise take it to a camera shop and they will swab the sensor clean for a small fee.

 

Hi Stuart,
Yes, I had noticed those, but when i look at my airshow shots from last week, they're OK...I'll check it anyway.......Thanks.

 

Jontie, have a look at THIS and THIS.
Follow the steps described to test.

 

Thanks very much for that Stuart. I may give it a go myself if i can pluck up the courage LOL!

 

Any one out watching or one todays train. Seems to have been running mainly ok so far looking at RTT.

 

Just a quick video from this morning nr. Settle, looking and sounding strong.

 

Up close & personal there David, but very dramatic. Many thanks for sharing.

Cheers,

Alan

 

Yes, very dramatic. Most unusual and different. Good shots. Many thanks from me too.

 

Yes have to agree David especially how you have made the location look so different, pity others dont follow your lead.
Same old same old





Four tops singer on castors like this

 

Must be the footbridge at Langcliffe, last time I was there 46203 lifted the boards clean off!

 

Love it. Just like being there.

 

I was on board and will post later - got to catch up on my jobs (condition of skiving off for the day).

 

Many thanks Alan - thought I'd go for a close in shot with this one.

You're welcome, and thanks. Managed to fit this one in around other commitments, so a bit of a bonus.

Haha, many thanks Henry - going to have the Four Tops in my head all day now

Yes that's right. I'm not sure I'm brave enough to stand there when 6201 returns in that case!

Many thanks - much appreciated.
