re 'mappman1000' comment..

The 'heads out' thing is seriously not appreciated by the staff on these 'Spitfire Railtours' trains.. if you get seen poking your head out of a window, a warning of "do that again and you'll be off at the next stop" swiftly follows.

It's a real shame because i think most of the passengers are out for a 'bash' behind some cool motive power, but this is denied us by the over-enthusiastic train staff.

I hope it's not the case now with all tours operating on the M/L?

@thegigpig35 Certainly put it as I would have. I have since travelled with Pathfinder, who were Very accommodating and friendly.

Very nice shot, it looks so good with the autumn colours and light. Even with the Bodysnatcher clag!! Come on you Tractors!

Not sure if Bob is mixing up you and me??

@MG06ZT Thanks Keith. I filmed it in cinifilm setting, works well with autumn. The auto mode was making the sky overexposed. I think he may have got mixed up, as this is your patch lol.

@thegigpig35 I was on a Spitfire tour 3 weeks ago, and they didn't have any problems with heads out!

@robmasterman No worries Bob. I've often been called Keith for some reason. Cheers

@uhm121 Many thanks

@robmasterman Cheers Bob, think you've got me and MG06ZT mixed up as we both use the same equipment and this is one of his usual spots.

@itfcsam Many thanks

@HomeMoviePerson Thanks. To be honest I thought it would have been louder, but the 57 spoilt it we all thought (we as in,the observers on the incline).
