or if ya dont have a tripod, use the platform as a stable ground, i do!

also, if your cam has the option, set the white ballance to flouresent light, that`l avoid the orangne tinge.

Never take picture's of moving trains - unless of course you want to add artistic flavour in the photograph.

Thanks for the comments, Im going to pop down again tonight, but I'll be armed with a tripod this time!

I've also read the instruction manual which has a few tips on taking photos in the dark!
