7th May 2018. The first day of the Great Heat Wave at the Keighley And Worth Valley Railway and later in the day I would have to take shelter under one of the bridges as the heat was so stifling. In the scene USATC S160 2-8-0 No.5820 Big Jim makes a light engine movement to Oxenhope [from Haworth] before she starts her duties for the day.
I was out looking for birds when this thing came rumbling out of the woods. I did not have a chance to change lenses, so this was caught with a 400mm F/5.6L from between 100 - 150m away.
While photographing the Jurassic coast in Dorset, I came across by chance this incredible steam railway. Remarkable and nostalgic it made a great subject to shoot.

One of 4 purchased in 1975.
Cincinnati had a total of 13 of these fully enclosed engines which were purchased between 1972 and 1975. When this pumper was delivered, this was the second due engine where I was living. If I could only go back...
through the corner. You can see right in front of the rear wheel lower where holes are in the body work. The #2 has a hole through it. MotoAmerica is the new AMA American Super Bike series...with multiple classes.
Twenty three minutes later and in sunlight Ken takes a squint at the photographer as British Railways Standard 5 4-6-0 73156 approaches the foot crossing at Birstall with the same 13.30 ex-Loughborough service.

Removed today, the Commer TS3 engine from Harrington Contender JAP 698 sits basking in the daylight at the shed door. Restoration work on the coach is about to step up a notch.
I’ve been unable to find very much information on this interesting building. It is located at 2100 N. 2nd Street, in the near north-side of St. Louis, Missouri, and currently houses American Timber Salvage. That company is in the business of salvaging historic building wood materials for re-use, and is owned by Bruce Gerrie, who collaborated with artist Bob Cassilly to provide materials for the world famous City Museum. The City Museum, which is located in a converted shoe factory in downtown St. Louis, is built almost entirely with cast offs from demolitions. Mr. Gerrie is also the owner and curator of the St. Louis Architectural Museum, which is located inside of the City Museum.
Above the door of this structure can faintly be seen the words “Engine Co. 26.” As best as I’ve been able to determine, this was a former firehouse built in 1887. The old cobblestone street can still be seen leading up to the front door, which mostly likely saw horse-drawn fire engines in its early days. I have been unable to find any information indicating how long this building remained in operation as a fire house. Apparently, in the 1990’s the building was used by some artists (JD Street, Tom Seymour and "Evil" Ted Smith) who went on to some acclaim as special effects gurus in the film industry after moving to California.

This was the eighth transparency that I took in my earliest days of photography, the cassette loaded into my prized Instamatic 104 camera. I was merely a trainspotter with a camera at the time, at the age of 15 and indeed my photographic prowess left a lot to be desired. On Friday 19th April 1968, while on holiday in Cumbria staying at my grandmother's house, I purchased a cheap day return ticket to Preston with the aim of capturing some of the last remaining steam activity, as well as gaining a few 'cops' for my Ian Allan ABC of course. I was overjoyed when 'Britannia' 4-6-2 70013 'Oliver Cromwell' appeared from the north light engine, and ran into the East Lancs. side of the station, presumably on its way to Lostock Hall shed from Carnforth, prior to railtour duties. Without further thought, I hastily ran over the footbridge, across to the east side of the station, scurried off the end of the platform, up the banking and secured this shot of the resplendent Pacific, with the Butler Street Goods Depot beyond as an appropriate backdrop. How incredibly easy it was to do such things in those days without repercussions, and I was not alone, taking the cue from some rather senior photographers setting a bad example to a young teenager. Happy days!
