Yes Geordie they did have to lift the track and dig some of the bed out just in the station area.
someone got their sums wrong somewhere but everything seems to be in place now.

If we had traction like that every day you could not keep me away.
I was shatterd last night but very happy.

What happens when someone strays into your viewfinder.
Normally when I am out and about there are only a few others. All experienced photographers and we usually keep out of each other way but sometimes someone will creep into a shot. I have heard some choice comments when this has happened but never any animosity. Sometimes I will deliberately include another photographer in my shot.

Imagine my surprise when on Thursday on what will be the busiest ever day at Alloa, a Gentleman came up to my vantage point and asked me to move as I was spoiling his shot. No matter that I was there first. You can imagine my reply.

The cheek of the fellow! I'm always careful to keep out of shot when there are a lot of photters around. Some people aren't so considerate, but I just live with it rather than getting into an argument.

I imagine that if you were an attractive woman, he would ask you to be in the shot. Cool
