[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The title is name of the Estonia Railway company. I tend to tavel as much as possible by train on working trips, though it's getting harder to do in the Baltic states, especially with the cancellation of the Riga Vilnius service in January this year.

Anyway, Estonian trains still go where I want them to, and with 1st class offering a buffet service, and free wi-fi, it makes it a much more preferable option to car hire.

Last week the whole region had unseasonably warm sunny weather.

Can anyone confirm the province?

I like how you have framed this one, Richard.
The strong blue tones make it work.
The train looks old, but a 1st class buffet service and free wifi sounds good.
(so do beers in June!)

Hi Richard,
According to Wikipedia the province (county) is correct, and according to me your photo is a pleasure for the eye. It is very well framed with the railwaystation in the rolongation of the traverse formed by the train and the rails. Very nice colors as well.
Regards
John

I remember how much you like trains, Richard.The colours in this one are lovely and the composition dynamic.The idea of traveling by train though the Baltic states sounds exciting. regards kevin

Hi Richard,
Beautifully restaured old wooden station. And I like the style of that diesel train too. Nice weather and charming blue sky. But I'd like to see the main subjects bigger.
