Today's Happenings

[JonathonAG]

Evening all,

had quite an adventurous day of photography today. Started off by catching an engineers train at Lumphinnans at 8.40am, the the Royal Scotsman at Aberdour at 2pm, and finally, caught the Midland Mainline HST again at Kiersbeath. As usualy, not everything goes to plan....while waiting for the Royal Scotsman, I was standing in full sun, with some clouds about, photting the usual 158's and such......but as soon as the Royal Scotsman is due, it rains. Oh well, sometimes it works, other times it doesn't :
