Here you go Phil, "The Dalesman" looking absolutely gorgeous, as ever! The field where the engine line is situated at Bloxham is on a hill. At the one end of the line, the engines are parked on the brow of the hill and if you walk in front of them you are actually looking up at them. This changes the perspective slightly and the engines look absolutely magnificent, they stand very proudly. I perhaps have not explained that very clearly - in which case just enjoy the photo!



I must admit to being torn between The Dalesman and the Burrell that belongs to the Saunders as the subject for a new drawing. I did have a composition in which to depict the engine but I have decided not to take it any further - literally back to the drawing board! I will come up with something though.

Michael
