1 S301 - Great locomotive, fits the theme perfectly.
2 CaptainKman - Nice use of the first ever locomotive that was ever built.
3 Exile499 - The Talyllyn Railway is a brilliant railway to have 2 class leaders.

Votes (favourite first)

mezzoprezzo - Absolute pastoral perfection & perfection of composition - look at that depth in the landscape!
benjaminw - BR ex GWR steam - beautiful. However, I'm unsure of the coaches. They're not early BR nor are they BR restored GWR colours for WR. Is it supposed to be a railtour which would usually use restored GWR or MK1's? Out of interest, what's the route you used?
generalman - Nice composition!

Special mention

captainkman - Certainly takes 'Class Leaders' right back to 'Founding Fathers'. I have a suggestion though, close shots need hi-res ground textures in the foreground, especially if background is a bit weak.

I guess it is supposed to be a railtour, I just thought the coaches looked good!:hehe:
The route is called Cootes Lane MPD by lord-claud-hamilton,<kuid:254397:106742>. But I edited it because there were some assets that apparently don't exist anymore.

Hello Peter,

Thank you very much for the constructive comment.

I basically took an existing route and slapped plateway track on it.

I'll try harder in the future; I got really lazy with this entry. :hehe:
