This was an experimental capture to see if there was a shot from this location at this time of day. Here we see RhB Allegra unit ABe8/12 no.3502 rounding the lake in Ospizio Bernina with the 15:40 from Tirano to St Moritz at teatime on the 28/8/17
FS TreinItalia E464.572 arrives into Bologna Central Italy on the morning of the 22/12/17 with a unknown service.
"Black Caviar" CF4412, was leading again, heading a trio of CF4400 class locos on a loaded coal train passing through East Maitland.
Here we see FS Trenitalia power cars E414.xxx (front) and E414.xxx (rear) arrives into Mezzocorona for a short stop on the afternoon of the 20/2/25 with what I belive to have been IC611 from Bolzano to Bari Centrale. Unfortunately I was unable to ID the front and rear powercars of this IC train.
Freightliner Class 90 locomotive no.90041 was photographed just as the sun was rising on the cold and frosty morning of the 30/4/16 working the diverted Highland Sleeper 1M16 near Hixon between Stone and Colwich Junction on the morning of the 30/4/16. This train would normally have travelled from Crewe via Stafford, but the line was shut due to engineering work.
First time of trying this shot, so a bit of a trial and error as to where best to frame the train. Anyway, here we see 90044 lead class member 90045 just as a pet cloud arrived with the (SO) only working of 4M83 from Coatbridge to Basford Hall.
For info, this was a tricky train to capture due to the way it is pathed on the WCML south of Lockerbie. 4M83 passed Eden Loop 2hrs early, so one assumed it would keep running, but this was not the case, so the original location for snapping this train i.e. Cumbria would have worked due to being looped south of Tebay. It passed Euxton right time (not the planned location).
Virgin Trains Super Voyagers class 221/1 cross Dutton Viaduct over the River Weaver as the sun was falling behind me on the evening of the 31/3/16. The units were working 9S93 from Euston to Edinburgh via Birmingham
Freightliner intermodal locomotive 66548 was captured passing Lancaster Crossing in Stowmarket on the afternoon of the 20/4/19 with what I believe to have been 4L90 from Lawley Street to Felixstowe.
90044 leads 90043 DIT with the 10:35 Coatbridge to Basford Hall on the afternoon of the 27/9/14. Both 90s were expected to be powering, but I believe 90043 suffered technical issues at Beatock where it was delayed for 60mins. The loco's have been snapped passing Winwick Junction just as the sun went in for a few minutes.
SSR's Yarrawonga to Newcastle wheat train rolls through the undulating countryside at Yarra NSW behind quad C class.
On day 4 of the Swanage Diesel Gala, here we see NSE liveried 47715 working the 13:00 service from Swanage to Norden (2N18), which was captured passing Dickers Crossing.
Bursting under the old highway bridge near Tarro station in the Hunter Valley, are two classes of Pacific National stalwarts. Both 3000hp EMDs, NSW based 8159 leads former South Australian power in the form of DL50 on an empty PN wheat train.
A loaded PN coal train rolls east towards Kooragang on the Up coal road.
As part of the Debrecen nostalgia heritage traction and rolling stock weekend in August 2024, a number of celebrity locomotives worked service trains through the Debrecen area.
Here we see 431 001 (V43.1001) working what I believe to have been the late running EC143 from Wien Hbf to Zahony and beyond on the hot afternoon of the 18/8/24.
Unfortunately, the sun was not quite on the nose for this fine workhorse, but as it was passing, it seemed rude not to take a record shot.
A brand new spot for lineside photography at the time of taking this image. Here we see PKP Cargo locomotive ET22-668 with a mixed set of wagons enroute towards Oświęcim on the hot afternoon of the 30/8/24.
**Please note that I was stood on a small folding stepstool to take this image. Ideally you would need a big stepladder to take shots at this location"".

London City Airport DLR Station, London, England
This is a first visit for me to this station. Not the biggest station in the world but very symmetrical and its what I like :-). Had to wait a little while to get this shot as there were quite a few people slighting from the trains as they come into the station to go to the airport, I was quite surprised considering the size of City Airport.
I always really enjoy taking images of something new and fresh for myself so was well chuffed when I come across this station. I slightly desaturated the whole image in post production and added a little bit of green toning and then boosted the blues and yellows for the blue arches and yellow handrails. I think this would also look quite good in B&W conversion.
The only thing that has really annoyed me is in the white part of the glass canopy there seems to be quite a bit of noise. After closer inspection in LR4, its not on the original image that I have uploaded and seems to have appeared on Flickr so I put it down to the Flickr compression algorithms.
When I was at this station and waiting to go back into London I had a random thought on what percentage of the stations on the underground network I have visited. I feel although that I have taken many photos at them I bet the percentage is still quite small. I should do a project and pick one line and take an image at each station along the length of that line, that would be quite interesting.
Anyway, that was my random Monday thought. :-)

Information
London City Airport DLR station is a station on the Docklands Light Railway which serves the London City Airport. It opened on 2 December 2005. It is located on the King George V branch. Until the extension to Woolwich Arsenal, this station was the reason for this branch. It continues to be an important station on the DLR. Trains run westbound to Bank in the City of London and eastbound to Woolwich Arsenal. The station is in the London Borough of Newham and is located in Travelcard Zone 3.
The station (like many Docklands Light Railway stations) is elevated. It is also fully enclosed. There are two entrances to the station and the platforms are connected by escalators and lifts to an intermediate level with a direct link into the airport concourse. Main access to the station for local passengers and mobility impaired customers is by a lower level subway.
It has a direct covered connection with the adjacent airport terminal building. Although the station maintains the DLR philosophy of design, it makes concessions to cater for airport passengers, including a fully enclosed waiting room on the central island platform and, unusually for the DLR, a manned ticket office. There is a crossover west of the station which allows trains from Poplar and Woolwich Arsenal to reverse here during periods of disruption.

MCM BAX19 Constantí - Barcelona Can Tunis
Hoy, aprovechando que por la mañana estaba en Tarragona, he decidido aplazar el viaje de retorno para quedarme toda la tarde viendo trenes en la estación. Cuando el Sol empezaba a irse tras las casas, me llega un aviso: acababa de salir de Reus hacia Tarragona una de las ramas del CargoMetro que, tras haber estado todo el agosto descansando en Constantí, tocaba hacer su traslado a Barcelona-Can Tunis para volver a la rutina el lunes. Minutos pasadas las 20:00h, hacía su aparición los 353.03 y 353.04 con el traslado del CargoMetro Constantí - Barcelona Can Tunis, circulando como BAX19, entrando en la estación de Tarrragona por las vías de apartado para dejar paso a varios trenes de viajeros.
Un saludo para el maqui y mil gracias al avisador de la información!

Marienplatz U-Bahn Station, Munich, Germany
Back to Munich now, I have been sitting on this image for a while, when I first got on back on the computer I was not sure if I liked it or not but now I do. It seems to have grown on me, don't you find it odd that your perspective on certain images seem to change over time, sometimes for worse and sometimes for good. There are images I took a few years ago that I am not so keen on nowadays but when you do look back at your early stuff on Flickr or any image sharing facility it does show you your photographic journey. You often can see how your imaging editing styles change and composition techniques get better over time, would you agree? Have you seen this in your photographic progression?
Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

Location Information
München Marienplatz is an important stop on the Munich S-Bahn and U-Bahn network, located under the square of the same name in Munich's city centre. The S-Bahn lines S1, S2, S3, S4, S6, S7 and S8 intersect with the U-Bahn lines U3 and U6. The station is one of the most frequently used stations in the network, with up to 24,400 people transferring and 8,000 passengers entering or exiting each hour. In 2007, 175,400 used the station daily on weekdays, including entries, exits and transfers.
In October 1966 construction was started, finishing in October 1971 as part of the new S-Bahn network for the 1972 Summer Olympics. Until early 2003 there were almost no further refurbishments done at the station. From 2003 to 2006, the platforms of the U-Bahn were widened to expand passenger capacity and were lifted by 4 cm to secure same-level boarding.
Under the Zweite Stammstrecke ("Second main line") tunnel project, Marienplatz station is to be connected to a second station further north, Marienhof, via the enlarged subway access tunnels on the fourth level.
Pacific National's steel train MW2 is seen rolling into Goulburn NSW behind an impressive 5 loco combination. Fading light took some gloss off what could have been a spectacular image.
The 3-car Canberra passenger Explorer railmotor has just run through the crossovers and on to the Main South up main at Joppa Junction, while the SCT interstate train MB9 sits at the home stick.
A new spot for lineside photography at the time of taking this image. This was a trial shot to see if one would on this gravel road. Here we see Green Cargo Rc4 lok type no.1252 working an intermodal train enroute towards Gothenburg on the evening of the 2/5/24.
