Posted by Lee Baxter on October 6, 2007  Nice shot Chris, seen it in RD. Posted by Joseph LeMay on October 6, 2007  Awesome - especially with the semaphores! Posted by assiuolo on October 6, 2007  wonderful!!!!!!!! Posted by Tim Perkins on October 6, 2007  Uh, not bad for your first accepted photo on "r.net". Can't wait to see more! Posted by Dean Kaplan on October 7, 2007  Awesome lighting and shot Chris! Posted by EMDC501 on October 7, 2007  Fantastic shot Chris!, great to see you got this type of shot before the old semaphores got taken away,thanks for your comments on my photo to mate on L270 in the tunnels section, Cheers and well done. Posted by Mitch Goldman on October 7, 2007  Very nice (excellent, actually) rendition of the light before the train - first time I've seen it from below the bend. Excellent exposure, too! Posted by Bob Avery on October 8, 2007  Absolutely stunning - the best of this type of shot I've seen - there are plenty on RP ! The outline of the British-style semaphores are the vital ingredient. Bob UK Posted by Cinderpath on October 8, 2007  This is a fantastic photo- beautiful, and creative, and perfectly executed. Thanks for sharing it with us- Cheers- M. Ross Valentine Posted by Kevin Bleich on October 9, 2007  Fantastic shot!!!!! Posted by Michael James on October 12, 2007  Great shot, Chris! It is definitely one of the best photographs in the ARHS 2008 Calendar. Posted by Michael Rhodes on October 16, 2007  You have a great deal to live up to!! This is a superb shot. I visited this exact spot with my Australian friend Adrian Roberts (alias mega-gunzel, but he hasn't gone bus!!) - we waited and waited for a train, kept up to date by some seriously good contacts in NSW Railways, but nothing came before it went dull and then it was in the other direction! I eventually got a nice shot when the sun came out later at Werai (RP-161042), - anyway sorry for the ramble, this is superb. Posted by on October 31, 2007  Now I have to get myself out there and photograph in the fogs more. Amazing work. Posted by Travis Dewitz on November 17, 2008  Incredible Shot! Posted by Scott Lothes on April 27, 2009  I really like how you used both the horizontal and the vertical curves in the tracks to provide such strong leading lines here. Posted by Dana M. on August 27, 2015  Why am I reminded of the book / movie title: "Something Wicked This Way Comes"? Very "creepy" photo - yet superb capture too. Love the way the semaphores just "stand out" amongst the fog and backlighting from the approaching locomotive. Excellent shot Chris.
