Thank you and yes, I was told that the parts for the trains cost a small fortune. But to me they are beauty in motion on the rails.
That was also my thought, as the mountain background lends a rural setting to the picture.
My next challenge is now to go and get the train running in the mountains and I think it will make a great photo to catch one emerging from a tunnel.
My eldest daughter and her family also now live in the UK and she sends me many photos of their travels over there. They emigrated a few months ago.
