I previously have shown this as a vertical image. I received suggestions that it may be better as a horizontal. After cropping, I used Photoshop's Enhance to increase resolution, followed by Topaz De-noise AI and Topaz Sharpen AI.
This photograph was taken on October 1, 2022, shortly after 7:00 a.m. on a rail siding in Edon, Ohio. The engine crew told me that they brought the engine onto this siding around midnight. They stayed with the engine all night to tend the fire box and keep the steam up in order to be ready for the all-day trip. On this particular day, the train carried over 380 passengers, running from Edon, Ohio to Hillsdale, Michigan.

PETER:
Listen, Oleg… the whistle… Look, Oleg, there’s loads of steam… the steam train’s coming!!!
Oh… that steam engine is soooo big… and… oh… (looks into the cab and sees two men waving)
they’re waving at us.
If only mijn allerbeste vriend Scout or mijn allerliefste prinses Rosie could see me now
OLEG:
OMG! That steam engine is huge!!!
They’re definitely waving at us, Peter.
We’ve got to wave back!
It was a long wait, but I’m glad I got to see it, Peter.

This big steam engine just stopped for a while in Olten ..... so i share another memory with my flickr friends ..
my granddad was a proud steam locomotive engineer - wen i was a little boy - he told me often :
Ueli - when you grow older - you must
be a Lokomotivführer or a teacher !
So i kept a deep affection to the railroad
all those years - and was a teacher for about 40 years !
Fast Train
Well you've been on a fast train and it's going off the rails
And you can't come back can't come back together again
And you start breaking down
In the pouring rain
Well you've been on a fast train
When your lover has gone away don't it make you feet so sad
And you go on a journey way into the land
And you start breaking down
'Cos you're under the strain
And you jump on a fast train
You had to go on the lam you stepped into no-man's land
Ain't nobody here on your waveband
Ain't nobody gonna give you a helping hand
And you start breaking down
And just go into the sound
When you hear that fast train
And you keep moving on to the sound of the wheels
And deep inside your heart you really know oh, just how it feels
And you start breaking down and go into the pain
Keep on moving on a fast train
You're way over the line next thing you're out of your mind
And you're out of your depth in through the window she crept
Oh there's nowhere to go in the sleet and the snow
Just keep on moving on a fast train
You had to go on the lam stepping in no-man's land
Ain't nobody here on your waveband
Nobody even gonna lend you a helping hand
Oh and you're so alone can you really make it on your own
Keep on moving on a fast train
Oh going nowhere, except on a fast train
Oh trying to get away from the past
Oh keep on moving keep on moving on a fast train
Going nowhere across the desert sand through the barren waste
On a fast train going nowhere
On a fast train going nowhere
Solomon Burke
