This is a slightly different take on the ‘Most Impressive Stretch of Line’ thread.
If you could stop a train anywhere on the UK network and take a photo from through the train window, where would it be?
Remember you can no longer hang your head out of the window so that the view has to be visible from your passenger (or driver/guards) seat?
Remember it doesn’t have to be a fabulous view, it could mean something personal to you, like going home after a long time away
Here are a couple of my favourites:
1. I might be slightly biased here...
I would stop the train between Deganwy Quay and Llandudno Junction and take a photo of Conwy Castle with the estuary in the foreground and the Carneddau Mountains rising behind the Castle.
2. The River Thames in London, I would stop the Thameslink train on Blackfriars bridge to photo the London Skyline
3. I would stop an ECML train on the approach to Newcastle and photograph the River Tyne and Tyne Bridge
4. The view of the Wembley Arch lit up at night on a north bound train home escaping from a hectic day in London
I am sure forum members will have some fantastic suggestions!
