A fascinating panoramic picture of The
Scenic Railway at Dreamland taken in June 2007 by photographer and
publisher Stuart Horner is now available for sale through the Save
Dreamland website.
A small
version of the picture appeared in Stuart and Sarah Horner's recent
book 'So you think you know the Isle of Thanet' which features over
400 colour pictures of Thanet's hidden details, wonderful buildings
and townscapes. The book is now available in Waterstones Westwood
Cross Branch Broadstairs.
Stuart explained his connection
with this wonderful feature of Thanet.
"The whole concept behind our
recent book was to showcase Thanet's exceptional features and
buildings. The Scenic Railway was always on our list, but proved a
really difficult picture to take without being airborne! Now we hope
to use the picture to help save the building featured in it, not
something we had expected to be involved with.
"So a percentage of each sale will
be donated to the Save Dreamland fighting fund to help preserve
another part of our wonderful heritage which is now terrible
threatened."
The colour picture shows the entire
length of the ride, before the devastating fire in 2008, and is
possibly the last picture taken of the historic ride in such a wide
format.
The picture measures 25" x 6" (640
cm x 150 cm) including a shallow white boarder all the way around.
For commercial use larger versions are available if required, up a
size of 72" x 9" approximately, and possible on canvas. Please email
for more details.
These particular commemorative
pictures has been professionally reproduced in a limited run of only
1000.
The cost of the 25" x 6" colour
picture is £4.75 plus post and packing of £1.25
