Liverpool Overhead Railway by night........

A Museum of Liverpool exhibit,

The boiler of LMR, ( Liverpool and Manchester Railway ) loco " Lion " is foreground.

 

The LOR ran between 1888 and 1956, and was demolished 1957.

 

This area of the Museum is very dark, possibly to put emphasis on the carriage lighting... so it isn't a massive stretch to shoot and make it night time...

 

"Lion" and the LOR probably never met in reality, though i am by no means certain about that, but using Lion as a foreground made sense to me, them both being Railway related, and possibly why they are positioned so in the hall.
