BN 738-1760-1756-5925-5341 The end of an era has arrived. The 738 is in the shop for any usable parts to be removed before it gets added to the deadline.
GP-9 1760 still carries the steam locomotive bell the Northern Pacific added when the engine was new.
Cotton Spinning Mill Oberwaltersdorf - The abandoned mill has been converted into flats, but an old steam engine remained in one of the buildings.
The steam train had just pulled into Pickering station after it`s journey from Whitby, it then uncoupled from the other end and came back around here to couple up to pull back out, the driver engineer got down from his cab and walked to the back of the engine, I then had my shot, I have desaturated slightly for effect.
I did shoot a video on the R5 of the train arriving which would have been the first video I have done on it, it`s not brilliant but I may post it at some point.
This part of Bodmin Moor, near Minions, a few miles north of Liskeard, has the remains of three neolithic stone circles known as The Hurlers, as well as several individual standing stones such as the one pictured. They are thought to date from around 1500 BC. Although there have been many theories, no-one knows for certain what their purpose was.
Tin and copper mining took place throughout this area until early in the 20th century, and many of the engine houses and other remains can still be seen. The engine house in the distance housed a 50-inch pumping engine, installed in the 1880s. The mine shaft it served reached 720 feet and was part of the South Phoenix Mine. The engine house is now a visitor centre.
The “Queen of Steam” continues to explore new frontiers and make history, now as an official Virginia landmark.
The train was built in May of 1950 by Norfolk & Western. The train was used to carry passengers from Virginia to Ohio and from the western parts of the Commonwealth to West Virginia. It is the sole surviving member of the fourteen Class J locomotives.
In 1952, it was one of the locomotives that pulled Dwight D. Eisenhower’s presidential campaign train from Columbus, Ohio, to Kenova, West Virginia. Now, the steam train is owned and operated by the Virginia Museum of Transportation, Inc., in Roanoke.

The former Rock Island enginehouse and sand tower are still around, but the GP's are long gone. I think the building is now used as a car shop.

What a beautiful piece of machinery! All motorbike enthusiasts will recognise this as twin cylinder 998cc Vincent engine, probably dating from around the late 1940s. I spotted the bike in Looe, but it had a couple of seriously ugly metal pannier boxes on the back, so I decided not to photograph the whole of it. I suspect it could be a B series Rapide, dating from 1946 onwards. The HRD name was apparently dropped in 1950 to avoid confusion with the American Harley Davidson (HD).

Union Pacific's first diesel-electric switch engine pulls Deer Creek Scenic Railroad's "Santa Claus Express" train south of Heber City, Utah on Dec. 15, 1985. The beautifully restored NW2 was built by EMC as a demo unit in Oct. 1939 and purchased by UP in 1940.
In July 1966, it was retired and sold to the Stockton Terminal & Eastern in California. By June 1969, it found a new home on the Western Pacific as No. 607 and by May 1973, it was transferred to subsidiary road Sacramento Northern.
After the UP-WP merger of 1983, 607 was retired by UP (again) and donated to Utah's Deer Creek Scenic Railroad in May of 1984.
By February 1993, it was sold to the Nevada State Railroad Museum in Boulder City, where it operates today.
