Blue sky in Bridlington - what year was that? Looks more tropical to me - Portugal possibly.

Its obviously not Iraq its on the island of Sodor where the sun (Almost) always shines, can you see the fat controllers house. The palm tree flourishes because the Gulf Stream warms the climate around the Island.
Hi interested in the area served by 52D. also researching colliery wagonways from same area.
