Fifty shades of green

It's hard to beat an early Spring day in Derbyshire under a cloudless sky and with the prospect of long, warm days ahead.

 

More in celebration of the tree than the train, this shot was taken yesterday on a Flickrites outing to the High Peak and catches DBS Shed 66127 on the 12.41 Walsall Freight Terminal - Dowlow Briggs (6M82) passing the hamlet of Malcoff near Chinley East Junction.

 

The moss covered stonewalls have seen better days but the trees are still going strong and, within a week or two from now, the budding leaves will surely give way to a splendid canopy.
