Grant Genlot

MOSAIC

Grant has been a member of the museum since late 2004. He spends the majority of his museum time in the shop or out on the line fixing cars. He visits the museum as much as possible but indicates that it never seems to be enough.

Shooting an 8.1mpxl - Canon EOS 20D, he prefers to capture those shots that the general public could not normally access. Subjects might include, but are not limited to; fixing rolling-stock, track work and the performance of the general and demanding (but interesting) maintenance. Here we present a rolling mosaic of Grant's photographs, taken over an extended time period on the Museum’s campus.
