Taken with Sportsmaster 381884
near Arley Station, Severn Valley Railway, 24th May 2006.
The locomotive is No.42968, a Stanier class 5F (or sometimes
6P5F) 2-6-0; built at Crewe in 1934
(my thanks to David Muggleton for this information).
The film was a Jessops
brand 100ASA, and hence the shutter speed would have been around
1/250sec.
The aperture isn't known, but it was an overcast day, threatening
rain, so I'd guess the aperture to be f5.6 to f4.
The original print, on Ilford Multigrade, is very adequately
sharp at a 6x enlargement.
