I was musing over the similarity between these two views,
taken at the Great Central Railway in 1994 and 2000. I concluded that rear end
views of steam locomotives with tenders rarely work aesthetically - too much
tender behind.
That reminded me that I had read recently about a lady in
America who had been involved in a road accident. Instead of sending the
required pictures of the damaged car to her insurers, she had sent photos of
herself, even obliging with “a picture taken straight on and a picture taken
from each side.” I assume the insurers had not, in this particular case, asked
her for a rear end view.
