I took Abe to see Thomas when i lived in Kent – he was two and freaked at the steam and the fat controller LOL!!! But we still made him get on and not spoil our fun :)
Corking shot Simon – love the light and the steam – a real beauty – one i wished i had done :)

It takes a special image of a train to stand out. Your perspective, strong contrast and action in this shot is perfect.
