Did I pick the wrong day?

I went out with Ferret the helpful driver on Friday. So guess what, the worst weather of the 3 days he went out for, hmmmm. Despite my curse (just ask my knee!) I've got round to editing the photos, nothing new of course, just in a new style.

I do like the two pans. Tell me, how can you tell which direction the train is moving in from the background (if at all)?

The more blur there is, the less you can tell which way it's going from the backgound. But the more blur, the better the effect of motion looks
