I had seen images of Peter Mitchell’s wonderful ‘Ghost Train Ride’ from 1986 but its elegaic rendering of ‘travelling mortality’ @TPGallery comes from proximity to ‘Francis Gavan at Home’, 18 years later. “Everything dies in the end - even ghost trains.” The true Leeds Laureate.

#ShowsToSee | Nothing Lasts Forever For over 50 years, Peter Mitchell has photographed how Leeds has rapidly changed in the latter half of the 20th century. Now, these shots are on display in a retrospective @TPGallery. Until 15 June: thephotographersgallery.org.uk
