Ah, well, over here we have these modern gadgets called tripods and remote-releases. They should filter there way over to your side of the pond within the next couple of centuries. Develop the film yourself?
Does look good though, 3rd from last gets my vote not like my immediate post-war local scene. A bombsite. As the town is on the frontier with Germany with not one but two bridges there was some serious clobbering taken from both sides. My railway is a pretty close representation.

I have the tripod its trying to frame the picture as it steams past!!............ I took a lot of pictures with half a train in them..............
Funny story about developing them myself, black and white was a doddle but colour? I'm colour blind and I used to have to get the wife to inspect..................................

Sounds like you live a bridge too far mate.............................I know, hat, coat
Mind you throw a few tanks in there and you'd really have a scene!!!!!!!
