Beamish; Industrial steam.


I (Ben) am a great fan of industrial railway photography, and have a great many books on the subject.  However, I was born several decades too late for the heyday of the subject, and indeed even the use of diesel-operated industrial lines were ending when I was a kid.


Beamish however offered opportunity for me to have a go at the sorts of photographs I enjoy looking at in those books.


Beamish regularly hosts photo charter events, and I'd missed a recent one... however, they had this rather nice Andrew Barclay trundling about the place, just pottering around, and it offered plenty of scope for nice shots.







The shots worked out brilliantly, and I really loved how they came out, particularly the arty, greyscale ones like this.
