Thank to all who took part in our previous 'puddles' challenge. After all that walking and splashing, this week I thought we should look at more modern transport. of course 'more modern' is relative and this locomotive is on the South Tynedale railway in Alston, a 2 foot, narrow gauge, railway.

 

As the train pulls into the platform, what happens next?

 

The “rules”:

  • Use the starter image as at least part of your own image entry.
  • Anything goes, as long as it meets the forum rules on decency, copyright, etc.
  • Anyone, and everyone, is welcome to have a go, whether you are a complete beginner or a Photoshop expert. This is not just for our forum “regulars”.
  • There are no prizes apart from the chance to practice, show off your skills, or bring a bit of humor and fun. Don't be shy, join in and have a go!
  • The starter image is made available for you to use in this forum challenge only.

 

To download the starter image, hover over the image and click on the circle with the arrows at the top right. Then, when the image opens in its own window, right click and choose “Save Image As/Save Target As” (or similar depending on your browser).

When posting back your image — please use the blue reply button in this first post and use the 'Insert Photos' icon at the top of the reply box. If posting a comment on someone else’s entry, then please use the grey reply button next to their image post.

 

Have fun!

Typically it was one of those days when the wrong sort of leaves on the line halted service.

Frosted leaves, a particularly nasty type 🙂

Ah so that's how you get a standard gauge loco on a narrow track - squash it! 🙂

That looks like it is about to pass us at speed, which is a new lease of life for the loco as the Tynedale railway as a 15mph speed limit! 🙂

I just looked up the history of the engine, which generates all of 70 hp, which is a lot less than a family car! It was originally built in Poland in 1957 and was rebuilt at the workshops in Alston in 2001. It is the Naklo mentioned here: https://www.south-tynedale-railway.org.uk/locomotives-stock/#1547126320348-2f8696d1-d4f6

It looks a bit like on of our tube stations. Is it a real station or AI generated?

The station is real but cut apart and rebuilt to fit the perspective. Only things AI are some clean up and the smoke.

Every child should have a train set 🙂 There are also many grown men with model railways including, famously, Rod Stewart.
