Railways have fascinated me for as long as I can remember — the scale, the sound, the sense of purpose. This gallery brings together railway photography from across the UK and Europe, ranging from steam days on the Bluebell Railway and Watercress Line in Hampshire, to heritage trains on the Epping Ongar Railway and Spa Valley Railway, to modern GWR Intercity services at Paddington and Maidenhead. Further afield, there are trains at Gdańsk in Poland, the Flying Scotsman at Finsbury Park, and the grand architecture of Bilbao's main station in Spain.
Each image tries to capture something beyond the train itself — the atmosphere of the platform, the quality of light, the human details that make railway photography so endlessly compelling.
