British Semaphores
A Worcester bound GWR train splits an aging pair of semaphores that guard the Moreton-in-Marsh station. 

A newer set of power, LED headlights and a boring wedge frame don't really help this picture out, but don't think a redo will come so easily.. After hearing that my dad and I would have some time off and a car during our trip to the UK I instantly got on google maps to check if there was anything of interest nearby. This search lead me to Moreton-in-Marsh, a smaller town in the Cotswold's that had the pair of semaphores you see here. Form the very limited research I did on these oddball signals (at least for NA standards) I found that they managed to stick around as a result of GWR upgrades further down the line taking up too much of the budget. I had wanted a North facing shot at the station which was miles better than this. I was also running out of space on my SD card so in anticipation for this train I deleted every test shot I had taken while trying to get the prefect frame but due to some &quot;infrastructure issues&quot; that oncoming train seemingly vanished and all hopes for my better shot of the British semaphores with it as well.
