In the thumbnail 3 looks like it's giving off amazing clag!

Hard to chose a fave, but I went with 10 as the photo has great power in both the train and the sky.

:o

Some level of difficulty involved with choosing the winner here this week. Like a few entries which is gonna make it difficult to choose just one.

Leaving the grey matter to tick over on the decision with this one for now, will vote later this week when I've decided. :lol

Had to be Number 4. Stunning...................................

OOI, Isn't No.7 a VWC service? XC only ran with 1 TF and this set has 2....
And after further looking, It's come south out of 11 too.... highly unlikely for an XC that. XC nearly always used 5

Wow - good shots this week. Tween 10 and 11, both amazing, but I went for 10 as the weather above made for a good contrast.

Finally had another look today and I'm still stuck for my choice! 04, 05, 07 and 11 all deserve to win for different reasons.

As for whether 07 is VWC or VXC is something I wondered, but without being able to see the rest of the set it's impossible to tell.

One shall return at the weekend with the vote, because quite frankly I can't decide.

05 also appears to be a WC set, with 2 vehicles past the buffet :P

By gum, you're right, never noticed that.

Finally made my vote, and I'm afraid nostalgia, rose-tinted spectacles and traction preferences have influenced me tonight, along with the desire to cast my vote already, and I've gone with photo numero 4.

I really did like number 11 though, as I did the first time I saw it some months ago. :)

Toss-up between 6, 10, & 11 for me. All gorgeously exposed (if that's the word I'm looking for - I'm no photography expert!) - however, in the end it's got to be 11 - while I like the richness of the autumnal glow of 6, and the contrast of light & darkness on 10, no. 11, with its blue skies and beautiful colours is so pleasant to look at it wins for me.

Legendary location too!

On a slightly bitter note. The reason I had originally specified post refurb was to dis-allow shots of that nature. Ah well.

Well aye, and I was going to upload and enter a photo of 43357 (obviously post-MTUing), but after some discussion with my flatmates I went with 43007 as can be seen.

Maybe you could set up a seperate competition for a one-off (outside of POTW if need be) expressively banning anything pre-summer 2008 in terms of AXC so as to get the post-refurb shots? I'd certainly be up for entering that.
