All,
After a lot of toying with the thought of purchasing a pole to open up some new locations and add a new challenge to my railway photography I have finally bitten a bullet.
The pole has arrived:

The remote control CamRanger is on order:

Modifications to the pole are ongoing to mount a Manfrotto tripod head, which combined with a stand designed for an iPad on a microphone/music stand should see the set-up good to go.
The plan will then be to use the CamRanger to wirelessly control my 5D MkII whilst 5m up, viewing the live view on the iPad screen which will also offer full control over the camera settings.
Watch this space for some test images!
