S&DR200 Locomotion No.1

Replica of Locomotion No. 1

I had a great time Friday just gone in Shildon, watching the start of the replica journey along the Stockton and Darlington Railway of the Locomotion No. 1 (replica) as part of #railway200. The original journey took place on 27th September 1825 starting in Shildon making its way to Stockton. The original train was built by Robert Sephenson in Newcastle. I had my camera phone ready and this was the photo which I managed to take of the train.

Sunny Misty Skies, Yellow Fields

 I flew my drone pointing towards Bishop Auckland and the retail park on a beautifully sunny day, with rapeseed fields so yellow they looked like nature had cranked the saturation slider to 100%.
