Of all the things we humans decorate the landscape with, train tracks are probably my favorite. I guess it’s not a very difficult choice considering that the other “decorations” include power lines, litter and barbed-wire fences.

Actually, Damo, I had forgotten them! It’s been about twenty years since I lived and worked in a city that had them growing like weeds! But you are in London, right? Isn’t it in competition with Dubai and Shanghai for this year’s “Construction Crane Capital of the World” award? The U.S. doesn’t even have a city that qualified for the semi-finals.

Fences! They are always in my way when taking pictures. With all the litter they accommodate. Railways are my favorites too.

Yes, I agree! Especially the barbed-wire ones that rip your trousers when you climb over them.
