Thank you both for your comments! :) You didn't ruin the shot at all. Seeing other railfans gives an idea of the atmosphere of the chase and adds an interesting feature to the shot! Thanks again!

@Crintingnut You could always record a sample and set your ringtone as an mp3 if your phone has the capability?

Wish there was an Iphone APP with New Zealand crossing bells. Would be a great ring-tone!
