A brakeman checks the connection on the engine after the runaround. General Motors Locomotives, Electro-Motive Division, Class 0-4-4-0, Serial 19978, Date: April 1956
This four month old CSX GE ES44AH locomotive # 773, waits on a siding for assignment in the railroad yard at Erwin, Tennessee, on April 23, 2008. The locomotive is sitting over a special mat placed on the track in this area to collect any fuel or lubrication oil or grease droppings. Quite often locomotives are refuelled at this location. Notice the steerable trucks used on this locomotive. The railroad yard and right of way was previously the property of the former Clinchfield Railroad. A good percentage of the rail traffic that passes through Erwin consists of unit coal trains. This new locomotive sure doesn't look like the old # 773 Lionel Hudson steam locomotive.

Arthur Wright was built for use at the East Midlands Gas Board. Her first area of work was at Carr House Works in Rotherham, before moving to Derby in the 1960s. Afterwards she was sold to Albert Looms in 1970 and worked for the company until 1974, and was sold into private hands. Arriving in early 1975, she was repainted and named after the late Arthur Wright, a director for the MLST. In her earliest years of preservation she was proven to be a valuable asset to the railway, when run-round facilities were very limited. However, she is now in store at Swithland, awaiting a much-needed overhaul. (Source: Wikipedia). Photograph taken from a moving carriage window using a Pentax K-5 with an SMC Pentax K 50mm f1.2 lens.

Regulated two-stage turbocharging to meet future emission standards
Since single-stage turbocharging will no longer be sufficient to comply with the increasingly tougher future emission standards, MTU in future will opt for a regulated two-stage turbocharging.
Water leaking out of one of the heads wasn't a good sign at all. Worst case scenario, the heads cracked. Best case scenario, its just the gasket. Luckily, it was just the gasket.

Freightliner Class 66 no. 66509 TnT with 66522 drift down Fron bank on the return 6C70 Talerddig to Bescot, having dropped ballast at Talerddig a few hours earlier. This was the first time a Freightliner Class 66 had worked the Cambrian, and the first time in 5 years or so that a non-ERTMS-fitted loco had worked the Cambrian, certainly in daylight, without needing to be piloted by a Class 97/3. This is the best rescue effort that could be done to this shot, as the autofoucs decided to have a wander just before I fired the shutter. And to cap it all, I was desperate to make a deposit at Crapper's Bank.
