Out in the Cold

Taken on 10 February 2012

I've called this photo "Out in the Cold", because it was, very cold!
Robbie and I were not prepared to walk far in this weather, so we settled for a spot in the snow covered field at the back of my cottage.
The King was returning to Southall from Yeovil, and only running with a support coach, so I thought a side view would look the best.
I do apologise for the poor quality of this picture, but as can be seen, there was little light and it was sleeting slightly.
Keep warm everybody,
Vaughan.

Vaughan - That sure looks cold! Are you singing falsetto after that? You're are having very cold weather, we are having it very wet. Up here at 3200 ft. we are OK - Just spending many Days IN the cloud. Nice shot, I;m still very biased towards anything GWR. Will you go out in the cold for me again when the next steam loco passes you? Thanks and my regards, Phil H. Leura. Oz.

Well Vaughan I salute you and Robbie for this shot even though you didn't venture far I take it she was heading up the "the Smoke" for the run to Bath and Bristol is it this weekend? All the Best Ant

Phil - The next steam train due to pass my place is the 'King' Sunday evening,but it will be too dark to photgraph, so if you think I'm going out in this cold, well.....
Ant, yes, the 'King' was on it's way back to the Smoke for Sunday's train. She is going to Bath and Bristol via Swindon, but I doubt if I will go to see it.
Keep well and warm everybody,
Vaughan.
PS : Phil, there's a brass monkey out here looking for a welder!
