Thanks for collating this summary Ian. I wonder if it would be possible for a mod to make a new topic for this link and 'sticky' it to make it easier to view the entries as they are updated?

Moody photo.

From Last year not this!!!!

Nice shot though!

 

This photo was taken today at Wanders curve. Like I said on the MHR Roster thead (General Railway Chat) I was at wanders curve today with three other photographers waiting for the last up train. This was shot of the day and possibley the best location to be at for a later afternoon photo.


Ps don't forget 31806 wasn't in service last Januray and didn't enter service until Feb 2011

 

That still doesn't change the fact that the photo was taken in 2012 and not 2011 .

 

Sorry.

The penny has now dropped. I now understand I can't submit a photo from Jan 2012. I was under the impression you could submit photos from 2011 and including photo take in Jan 2012 up to the closing date of the competition.
