How on earth did Mike take this picture?

I'm positive that there is an absolutely huge drop down to a lower lever road and some arches under the station and that wall protects users of the car park from it...even with a zoom lens the angle is still wrong...is he levitating? Or just very very tall :shock: :? :lol:

p.s the "steamer" is rebuilt Merchant Navy Class Bulleid pacific 35005 "Canadian Pacific" :wink:

She carries the headboard of the Cathedrals Express which ran from London Victoria - Bristol Temple Meads - London Waterloo

I'm not sure how they turned her...or whether they needed to...there's probably some little trick using the relief line or something :lol:

Obviously taken from inside Bristol & Exeter House on, I would imagine,
the second floor.
