Between five and nine for me, but decided on nine. Lovely picture.

9 is very well composed, and certainly an excellent shot.

A whole host of great shots. Had ot be 9, but i honestly loved all of them! 11 reminded me of when i was last in Ghent and I was certainly tempted to go for it, but as I've said it had to be 9.

It may do but number 4 hasn't been mentioned yet and I think it's a great shot. There's something about railway photos in the snow that I love so number 4 does it for me this week.

1 - it shows what most people think of at a station - passengers - the main thing to keep the railways moving these days

it's a tram. Trains and trams are different things, yet they both run on rails

Too right. There's definitely NO trains in photo 11.

Depends how strictly you define the word train I guess. 11 doesn't really fit into what I had in mind for the theme, but I guess it does count technically.

Anyway, I've voted for 4.
