    The long lens does magnify the gradient a bit but the 8 has no problem as she wags her way towards the camera.

    My efforts of 48151 crossing Whalley Viaduct last night. My original plan was to see her from the other side of the viaduct where the A59 runs parallel to the line, but the light was fading fast so I decided to pack it in but a spur of the moment decision to Whalley itself left me with this opportunity. My first attempt at a sunset shot, so any comments will be greatly appreciated!

    Yes it's a nice shot but why replicate it 3 times? The middle one would have been the one I would have chosen to publish. There isn't really any significant difference between all 3 after all.

    It's a fair point and on reflection I have to agree with you so have removed two. Thanks for the feedback.
