BradleyPhoto Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Possible it is a disused track? Although yes in light of some recent issues with people on train tracks and "photo challenges" it seems a bit of a bad idea to promote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlbertSnapper Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 It looks like the person has been photoshopped in ? Here are some idiots on railway tracks, posing for a photo recently. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-sussex-55764693 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlbertSnapper Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Just now, PAL Media said: How do you know it's not abandoned? It is not abandoned. The rails are metal and shiny, meaning the metal wheels of the trains keep the rails rust free as they pass along the metal tracks. Abandoned railway tracks are rusty brown. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Ventura Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Even if Photoshopped, the main photo had to be taken while standing on the track. Not long ago, two young women were killed, not far from where I live, while they sat on a narrow train bridge, taking selfies. Once they heard the train horn blast, there was no time to get off the bridge. Very sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alamy Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Hi All, We appreciate your feedback and we've removed the Tweet in question from our Twitter feed. We just wanted to clarify that we only wanted you to take inspiration from the cinematic style of the image. In no way were we encouraging contributors to trespass on train tracks. Thanks, Alamy 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
