Great photos. However, your photo in the thread about being happy with your railway is outstanding.

One of those mini tripods is worthwhile to take low level shots.

Agreed mate. They can be picked up for less than a fiver, and the variable height adjustment on the legs allows you get them into all sorts of awkward places.

Some gratuitous 'old time' shots for the sake of it. No tripod, taken laying on the ground. Colour removed in Photoshop, then a little put back in for sepia effect. Tight cropping to remove any out of scale background.

OK, the prototype is a Heisler, and my model is a Climax (I don't own a Heisler, sadly)... but, you get the picture.
