Away From The Madding Crowd
Title:  Away From The Madding Crowd
Description:  Why was I so far back for this shot? Well, for one thing, a good friend of mine who was present told me 4014 was a huge engine, so I needed to be back enough to get all of her in the frame. For another, I am not one for crowds, so I was more than happy to keep well back to grab my shots of 4014 on the old Spine Line.
