Since I'm not a big fan of steam, I love #2 and #3, but I prefer this type of train.

Leaving Lauterbrunnen station, heading down to Interlaken?

Hi ****

To me, this seems like an opportunity missed. I can't see any particular point to these images, if you know wht I mean. No juxtaposition, no concentration on any particular object, person or situation. They seem to be the sort of image any tourist would take on the way to the gift shop

MeaC. Thanks. I cant really give an educated evaluation of your photographs I'm afraid. But I can tell you that they aroused memories and I have booked my place on a recreational steam daytrip in my country. About your photographs? I like them. There are things I would have done differently but purely for my own uneducated eye. So, I will refrain from any crit if you dont mind.

Cheers - Ed

I really like and enjoyed your train photos. It brings back vivid memories of the times I rode trains as a child such as these, not as a tourist but for real when steam was king and electric in the minority. Pay no attention to those who criticize artistic merit or those who say just another tourist photo. You took a series of photos that tell a story.

Great pics, take no notice of those critics who have no sense of history..... they're just letting off steam!

Thanks for your kind comment. I like the history of trains as well and have documented this in many ways with my camera. Love to do that as trains have many aspects that make them nice subjects in pictures.

Cheers
