Jacob (Saturnr),

We have a description, but no picture!

Peter.

My apologies, I just now have gotten back to this thread. I will update with the picture.

Encounter on the East Coast Mainline (UK)

Special Steam Excursion, the two times record holding LNER Flying Scotsman with reproduction 1930s teak coaches passes a High Speed Train (HST) notably named Mallard after its steam record holding namesake (at 125.88 mph or 202.58 kph). Both the original steam locomotives were designed by Sir Nigel Gresley for the LNER.

Nice Shot there Peterwise. Looks like you will be getting my vote.

Nick, are you ok? This contest was over 3 days ago, and I haven't seen any postings for votes.

My apologies for the delay this week, I have an upcoming interview so naturally that takes priority above all else.

I'm glad that you have your priorities straight, Nick. Good luck with the interview.

There were some really great shots. Glad to see you're okay Nick, good luck.

My votes are
Stevelerro, lovin' that 614
Benjaminw, Very nice coastal setting.
Epoche3bis4, that is a great tight switching area, great use of space.

I also enjoyed Matt3985's ACL 4-6-2 at Miami, but alas I only have 3 votes. So I would say by my opinion it's a close 4th.

1. Stevelerro - That picture is incredible.
2. Saturnr - 'Cause it has 4501.
3. Epoche3bis4 - Impressive design. I tried to recreate that myself. Now if you release that, I'll be picking that up for sure.

Exceedingly hard once again to choose. Brilliant shots everyone!!!!

No particular order:
stevelerro = very powerful shot of the loco - wonderful
rickf77 = the steamer in the background has really set the scene with the locos - very cool
boc61 = nicely put together and atmospheric
