Photo of one of the semaphore signals along the trackside close to Ropley station on the Mid Hants Railway in Hampshire, England, conjuring up memories of the magical long-departed days of steam railways.

Photographed against the darkening threat of an impending thunderstorm.

The red asterisk (not the red target drop) identifies where Ropley railway station is situated, just above Ropley Dean village off the A31 road between Alton and New Alresford.

The signal/cloud photo was taken from Ropley station footbridge.
