Garden Railway Gallery Sept 2021 ENTER HERE

Post by philipy » Sat Jul 31, 2021 8:06 am

The theme for the delayed September quarter Gallery has been chosen by Rik, as the winner of the June gallery, and is:

My favourite..... (on my railway)

Rik said, "I thought this would give an opportunity for those who might have a great photo which hasn't fitted any of the categories so far.
It could be My favourite .....
photo
loco
wagon
train
building
scene
bit of track

In fact anything! However, it must feature the poster's own railway or stock."

Entries by 15th September please, and voting will be between 15th and 30th September.

The revised Rules are the 2nd post down at the beginning of this thread.

My Favourite bit of track

Thought I should put a photo up of a small part of my favourite bit of track.

Can’t find the new rules.
Apologies as usual as it is probably fairly obvious to most.

This was taken late last year. Most things about this picture could be better in one way or another but it is my favourite picture.

That's great- exactly the sort of thing I was hoping this title would elicit

My favourite Station building photo. Obtained from an estate years and years ago for a long time it was the only infrastructure on the entire line. Interior lighting was my iPhone 3 with the torch on.

My favourite thing at the moment is seeing everyone's favourites. Such good modelling.

In the interests of forum solidarity, here’s a favourite 50s branch line scene, that might have been.

(My new) green coaches with proposed Bulleid 0-6-4T. Note footplate man looking back, with professional satisfaction, at the coaches’ gleaming paintwork (though it’s a pretty dull day unfortunately and they don’t look very shiny anyway).

(Original image replaced with slightly less manipulated version, still not eligible for any prizes though)

Would it be acceptable and within the rules if I posted a merged photo of my favourite train in different scenes but all still on the one line?
