It seemed like a good idea - to record a Hunterston to Longannet coal train through the sculptural arch at Helensfield roundabout near Clackmannan. On 19th March 2011, the final variable after the road traffic and weather was the train itself. This crept into shot but came to a halt as shown, after which there was a lengthy stand off until I finally admitted defeat.
