As mentioned in the previous post, we were in the Lakes to get some shots for an article for Hornby. Whilst at Haverthwaite Station to get some pics of a loco in their sheds, we decided to have a brew and cake at the excellent station cafe.
Haverthwaite is a fascinating station- set between two tunnels, with a lovely main building, even on a damp day it looks dramatic.
This also allowed us to get some reference shots for another project that's coming up next year.
Tank loco "Victor" making a spirited exit from the tunnel.
Away from the cutting, the classic Lake District 'Tuppaware-Lid-Sky' effect somewhat spoilt the pics.
Whilst in the engine shed, some more close-ups of the locomotive motion, something I (Ben) had done for a previous gallery open call. I thought I'd get some new shots for a possible resurrection of the project.
A final shot from back outside at the station, as "Victor" left. We'll have to see if we can fit in another visit in better weather next year, to ride the trains again (having last travelled on them in 2022).
