	Hi Foggy, that's what I wondered about the man in the cap lol, in the original just under the bridge does seem to be reflection on water which you can't make out when I scan it in ...so I am wondering if the train took them and they are on canal bank....oh for another inch or so of photo lol xx

Member Since: August 2004 Posts: 486 Send Message	Dang Rose - I'm sure I recognise the ballustrade of that bridge from somewhere! I've just trawled the Internet for all the Grand Union Canal bridge photos from Invinghoe to Brentford - I'm feverishly trying to think where I ramble and cycle to see if I can find a match for you.
