Springfield

The TranzAlpine standing at the platform at Spingfield - where everyone was allowed to jump off and stretch their legs or take snaps. I managed to get this picture clear of any other tourists. Trainspotters - note the loco number is visible. Also note the large windows on the carriages.
The road and rail depart company for a while around here. This can be clearly seen here on the maps.google.com satellite view of the area.


I've replaced the original image with one where a contrast-mask has been applied to the train only and an unsharp mask has been applied to the non-train only. This brings out the train a little more (tool used was The Gimp).
