The Train Now Departing... by andycoleborn

The Train Now Departing...

Got to the platform just as the train was pulling out... was quick with the camera, out the bag, switched it on, shutter speed flicked to 1/3 second and managed a snap just before the train entered the tunnel.

Shame there wasn't a bod sat on the chairs but hey ho... !

Thankfully this is the DLR and it was only a 2 minute wait for the next train.

Glad it Friday as it means a nice long lay in tomorrow... happy weekend all...
Love this Andy, plus this must be the most shiniest station in London!

Looks cool, nice movement, the colour blur is wicked! I kinda like the lonely feel, esp after the recent news..

Fabulous! I took a couple of sly tube shots when I was in London a couple years ago, but nothing this cool.
