Full steam ahead!

Ex Great Western Railway locomotive 7903, Foremarke Hall, approaching Cheltenham Racecourse Station. This would have been a regular scene years ago, but now the line is a preserved line run by railway enthusiasts.

Wonderful shot Michael. It really invokes Turner's "Rain Steam and Speed" although in a more immediate, photographic context. Nicely done!!

Nice shot-we used Foremarke Hall when shooting our ghost story film Waters End back in 2006.
