Yes, it's quite a limited selection this week, and not a single "Womble shot" to be seen, given the title of the competition. :D

I've voted for number four.

I am quite possibly the world's most annoyed person at the minute. I was 99% sure that I had never taken a picture of anything LUL-related in my life. I was scouting for entries to the ECML comp tonight and found a good photo of a Tube train at Upminster... Needless to say I am not a happy bunny right now, but I did find a corker (by my low standards) for next week's comp, so we'll see how it goes.

6 snatched my vote this week, the background just made it feel much more urban than the shot at Willesden to me. I liked that one a lot too, but 6 just felt right somehow.

Surprised too at the lack of entries this week, but then I suppose it shows how little of us either go on underground systems or phot them.

Disappointed by the number of entries here; I had expected at least double. It does make me receiving multiple votes quite likely though! :lol:

I feel that 4 is the best here. Needless to say, it's not mine...!

I like the style of three, but four and six are good to.

This is where I wish I'd voted Yes for Alternate Vote!

FPTP means I'm going with four!

Electoral Reform for RailForums? That'd certainly make the polling a more complicated affair (if we were to use AV).

Number 2 for me, I think it reflects the sad state that some of Britains rail networks are in today. Many trains are plagued with graffiti.

Sadly, yes. We should electrify all the railways, so if somebody goes near a train with a spray can....

Thanks to all those who voted for my shot ( and thanks to all who took part ).

Hope you don't find the theme of "Third Rail" too shocking.

( I'll get my coat........ ).

Yup, that's what I voted for. Very nice photograph. What did it for me was how he managed to get both the foreground and background in perfect contrast and clarity. It's as if you're there for real (Sorry if this sound gibberish but i haven't a clue about photography! )

If competition 517 was carried out under AV, the person who came fifth could have won :smile:

Lets not start that one up again! :lol:

I don't think there's much point myself, it was a landslide victory for 'No' anyway!

I don't think Lampshade would have complained ;)

It takes a strange type of person to complain when (s)he gets an unfair advantage and wins as a result.

Like me.
