A response and request from a Richard Ratcliffe, who will be travelling on that train.
Hello,
I found your blog and will be travelling on that CME (Cumbrian Mountain Express) on Saturday 26th January. It is unusual for me to be on the train, preferring to take a good walk and watching the trains somewhere along the way. My website is mainly about walks, but an increasing number of walks have railway content. Here's the cheeky bit ... I am writing to a few enthusiasts / photographers to see if anyone would be so kind as to email me (at least) one photo from the run on the 26th. These photos will be compiled and put on my website with full credit and copyright acknowledged to the photographer - they will be shown at 800 x 600 (max) and will be part of a story of the day.
My website is http://www.summiteer.co.uk and my direct email is richard.ratcliffe4@btinternet.com
I full understand that some photographers will not be able to share their efforts, but maybe if I get a few photos I can present a decent story.
Thanks,
Richard Ratcliffe,
Burnley, Lancs.
