Polarising filter used
The lighting conditions for this shot weren't exactly favourable and I decided to use a polarising filter.  Because I wasn't sure how long I had before the locomotive ran round (the service was somewhat behind schedule at this point),  I placed the polarising filter over the Ultra-Violet one deployed as standard, rather than removing the latter as per my normal practice.  This did increase the vignetting problem that occurs at low focal lengths with the 16-80mm lens, although in this instance, I had a high enough focal length to avoid any major issues.
