A Lean Month
March can be a very good month for photography, with plenty of wintery colour in the landscape but longer days and shorter shadows than the depths of winter. Not so in March 2023. After getting a handful of shots at the beginning of the month, the weather turned grotty and the sun only seemed to come out when there were no interesting trains around. This was the only shot I managed in sun during the last 4 weeks of the month. 66764 passed Potbridge with 4Y19, the 12:30 gypsum empties from Mountfield Sidings to Southampton Western Docks, on 14 March 2023.
