The Minsmere marshes in the foreground were deliberately flooded during WWII to deter a German invasion. Now an RSPB reserve, they lie north of Sizewell, whose nuclear power stations are visible further down the Suffolk coast. Photographed from 4500ft #Minsmere #Sizewell #Aerial

Not for rail electrification, but got involved in design for this 35m gantry at London Gateway Port, for power cables over the sidings. Piles, masts, boom & rigging in one shift - to keep the 22 freight trains a day moving. Sadly couldn't be out over the weekend to see install
