Default Flying Scotsman at Bluebell
Spent a few hours on Good Friday as an anorak in a field taking pictures of steam trains. I was there for a very specific locomotive however, this isn't how I normally spend my bank holidays.

The Flying Scotsman, a name internationally known in the world of steam powered transport is spending the Easter weekend on the Bluebell Railway. I took the opportunity to grab a few pictures just up the line from Sheffield Park station, finding a nice open spot with good views of the track. Certainly made a change from snapping cars!

That first shot is a peach!

We had planned to head down there, but time conspired against me.

It's an incredible locomotive.

Cracking pictures, saw all the signs out as I drove up to Turners Hill for my new eyes. Could hear the steam trains passing as I waited to go in for my operation.
