I nearly spilled Tizer on my bloater paste sandwiches when the driver of D1041 gave me the full "On Ilkley Moor Bah Tat" going under that bridge - happy days

I have just found this picture of what looks like a Fowler 40hp petrol or paraffin powered loco. Not sure what it is doing but it might be somewhere in Scotland.

"Not really believable"........you jest good sir. But copying prototype images from the pages of Railway Bylines just won't do......

Incredibly good photo Simon!

 

[Bob]

Good evening Bob,

The backscene was brought at Gauge master ( The engine shed ) down in Ford, near Arundel in West Sussex. They also do industrial, rural, summer and winter backscenes.

Lovely shot Heather. Just been having a look through your blog whilst having a coffee.
Very nice indeed. Lots of inspiring stuff, particularly the piccie entitled "Medway Dawn".

Well worth spending an hour looking through folks!

Aww, shucks! Thanks Bob!

Are we allowed to post links to other peoples work that meet the criteria?

I hope so, because I find the work of Michael Paul Smith to be spell binding. The modelling is beautifully clean and the photo composition in most cases is excellent, the combination of model and real world can be very difficult to spot...

In black and white, this even includes some railway interest.

My current favourite
