<p>Hi to all, I have read all your comments and replies with great interest and would like to say thanks for some good inspiration. Its ages since I originally posted anything and my excuse is spending too much time trackside! If only that were completely true, I've also been changing jobs within the railway industry which has taken up alot of time.</p><p>I've just completed a 'winter shoot' where I've got through 5 rolls of 36 exp film. There will be a fair number of dud shots in there I don't doubt but I expect to get a fair few 'keepers'. So what did I shoot, well I visited both of my local freight yards and grabbed some roster shots of EMD JT26s and JT42s, I visited a passenger station that sits between two junctions offereing freight and passenger action on all four axis. </p><p>I was lucky to catch a large number of intermodals which are always photogenic with there variety of multi-colored containers and to spice things up a little, there was a fair amout of MoW equipment out there, auto-ballasters, tampers, regulators and an impressive bit of kit called the High Output Ballast Cleaner. It was largely sun and rain so many of these shots will have dark sky as a background which normally works for me.</p><p>All I have to wait for now is the railroad to pay me so I can get the stuff developed - Thanks again for all the comments guys. Looking forward to the summer and the Private Varnish!</p><p>Cheers</p><p>Dave Henwood</p><p>Chippenham</p><p>United Kingdom</p>
