Railway Architecture

As time goes on, I seem to be getting a lot more into photographing stations and their associated structures (along with disused railways). Down to the lack of variety 'on the network' these days possibly but most enjoyable all the same. I believe that the British Railway architecture is one of our great lasting legacies All being well doing a phtotographic survey at Redruth station later

I'm getting more into photographing infrastructure too not just the Architecture. As the technology becomes increasingly more computerised then more and more of the little bits and bobs that you used to find at the trackside are dis-appearing and new bits are appearing

We need lots of such photos as a digital archive.

For interest there is a bloke called Ben Brooksbank whose photographs of stations go back to the fifties and are absolutely without parallel - given he has put them in the public domain.

We have the Gallery here and I do contribute my infrastructure ones to the signalling etc parts
but I know what you mean about needing more stuff of just simple pictures of track items minus the trains
