This is a regular series of blogs about photographs of the same place taken years apart. The first of the posts in this series was of a council building in Manchester. I always thought I should give then and now photographs a go. However what I have started to notice is that I have been doing Then and Now photographs unintentionally over the years and have been taking photographs of the same thing or place from the same view or perspective years apart. Now this has come to my attention I have started to intentionally take photographs of the same place.
I remembered taking this photograph at Minehead Station on the West Somerset Railway many years ago, so on a recent visit to Minehead Station I decided I would try and recreate the shot.
This photograph was taken in March 2005 using a Canon EOS 300D digital SLR camera.
I took the more recent photograph in October 2025 using a Canon EOS R100 digital camera.
No steam in this shot.
