I Missed The Train

Railway viaduct near Baildon, Yorkshire. A passing train would have been helpful! The chimneys behind serve a textile mill – still in industrial and commercial use, but divided into industrial units. These chimneys will never again be belching forth sulphurous sooty smoke, no doubt to the relief of the locals. In fact the only emission from the top of the chimneys, if you look carefully, is a high level shrub. Nature, with the help of the man-made golf course in the foreground, has softened what was once a severe industrial landscape
These viaducts are really incredible achievements. We have a very similar one in our area, at Chapel near Colchester. Might grab a shot of it one day.

Very cool viaducts!!! I haven't had the privilege of seeing some of these in person.
