Bonus points if anyone can spot how I got the front of the train emerging from the tower so nicely.
Because it was the back end of the train, and you took a number of shots?

Damn, found out!

Yes it's the back end - and it's moving quite slowly having only just left Saltash and negotiated the tight bend leading out to the main span of the bridge.

[grin] I just guessed based on how I'd do it ... although I didn't know about the tight bend.

Nice shot.

There's quite a slow PSR across the bridge from memory and if t'were me I'd make good use of my camera's ability to shoot 5 pics in one go and choose the best ^_^

Pity it's a Vermin Voyager, rather than a Real Train (tm), but of course all the Logs went 15 years ago. Damn... is it really that long ago ;_;

Cheers, a fellow traing33k :D

Indeed - they pass quite slowly, which makes it fairly easy to get a nice photo.
