One of the oldest survivors of America's steam railroading era, this locomotive was built 29 years after the steam engine was first developed for transportation. Breese, Kneeland & Company of Jersey City, New Jersey also operated as the New York Locomotive Works and is represented by the No. 73 on the locomotive builders plate. The company used its standard style, based on a design patented by Henry Roe Campbell in 1836. Known as a 4-4-0 "Classic American" for its wheel configuration, this particular locomotive was manufactured in 1857 for the Milwaukee & Mississippi Railroad Company.
Believed to have been named "Spring Green", the locomotive served the upper midwestern United States for more than 30 years. By 1889, the Arizona & Southeastern Railroad Company, which later became the El Paso & Southwestern Railroad (EP&SW), had acquired it and converted it from a wood-burner to a coal-burner. The smokestack was also likely reconfigured from a funnel type to a straight type at that time. Calling it Locomotive No. One, EP&SW utilized it in the development of Bisbee, Arizona and in other mining and industrial operations in the southwest.
EP&SW retired Old Number One after more than 50 years of service, moving it to a park adjacent to company headquarters at 416 N. Stanton Street in 1909. Except for its brief role in the 1938 film "Let Freedom Ring", it remained there until 1960, even after the rail company became part of the Southern Pacific railroad system in 1924. In 1960, the railroad donated it to Texas Western College (now the University of Texas at El Paso), which placed it at the Centennial Museum. In 2000, the City of El Paso received state and national funds to restore the engine to its 1909 appearance, moving it to the present site at the Union Plaza Transit Terminal.

Still to come
We found things to do
In stormy weather
Long may you run.
I've done so many shoots with Belle, I am not even sure the exact number. This was from a very short shoot where Belle needed something quite specific for her acting work. Even as short and sweet as the shoot was, it was, like always, great to have Belle in front of my camera.

Number 7 on my Covers Playlist is I Want You Back. It was originally performed by The Jackson Five, but was covered by Esso Trinidad Steel Band.
Both versions of the song sound happy and upbeat when you listen to them, thanks to the talent and tone of the performers, but when I looked at the lyrics written on a page, without the music, they seemed to me to be rather dark, particularly if one focuses on the verses. To sum the song up, the writer of the song didn't seem to care about the girl he's singing to (and said he didn't want her around), until he saw her happy with someone else, then he started following her around town and obsessing about her, because he is now jealous. He can't let her be happy with someone else. He's getting possessive and asking her to leave her new beau, to come back to him. It seems a little creepy, despite the singer's sweet protestations of love in the choruses.
So that was why my take on such a happy-sounding little song resulted in a rather dark-looking photo. The girl has noticed she is being followed around town by her ex. You can see the shadow of her follower on the ground, looming. Her hand is clenched into a fist. She found happiness, finally, with a new guy, so why won't her old beau go away and let her be? Why does he only seem to want what he can't have, when he can't have it?
