TCDD Engineman Eregli, Turkey 1989

Time was about up in 1989 for the lives of steam locomotives on coal hauls at Eregli, a Black Sea town of at the end of a minerals railway isolated from the rest of the TCDD system.

A ship arrived one day to collect the redundant engines.

On an earlier much happier day Eregli Engineman Ahmet is at leisure with a customary 'Chai'.

Home processed / 35mm FP4.

15th May 1989
