This old steam engine lives in a small park north of Seattle. In the summer you will see young chidlren climbing all over it.

Located on display in Brownwood Texas I believe this is a Baldwin 2-6-2 and it is from the AT&SF line. I was so lucky to catch it in such beautiful sunlight!

“Henbury” was an integral part of the harbour in Bristol, transporting goods and passengers through the port.
She is still in good working order and pulls a wagon for passengers on summer weekends. We spotted her last weekend, presumably getting ready for the summer season.
Happy Thursday Monochrome!

Great Western Railway tank engine 1450 on Oldbury Viaduct near Bridgnorth in Shropshire on the Severn Valley Railway. The locomotive was taking part in a Matt Fielding Photo Charter on Tuesday October 2nd 2018. It had been dull all morning and then the sun burst out for a little while after lunch.
Class 57 'Pride of Crewe' in DRS Compass logo livery sits against the back wall on tick-over at the Citadel. I was really lucky on this occasion as there was a driver there who popped on the cab lights for my own solo photoshoot.
Occupation - helps driving steam engines at weekends at Derek Marder's Yard of various steam rollers and traction engines. This was taken before her face got sooty from the steam rollers !!

Loco 4247 and St.Piran,the first class carriage in the shot,hark back to a gentler,less complicated age: The loco was built in 1916...admittedly,the World was in turmoil then...but she worked hard throughout the century,and is even now bringing great pleasure to many nostalgia nuts...myself included! The carriage was built in Birmingham,approx 1957...how many people spent time in her plush surroundings? ;This is the last but one of my shots from B&W ... a return visit sometime in the future is a must.

- The Rekord D Series (easily mistaken to connote a diesel-powered car), so later renamed “2” Series (1971-1977) was already in production before production of the Rekord C was ended (1966-1972).
Two steam engines in the station of Werningerode. This light railway line is among the few regular train services in Germany which still uses steam engines.

Each of the engines on the CAF's B-29, "Fifi" have a unique name corresponding to movie stars of the day. "Betty" for Betty Grable. "Rita" for Rita Hayworth. "Mitzi" for Mitzi Gaynor. "Ingrid" for Ingrid Bergman.
Taken in Elsecar, Yorkshire. My hubby had a steam engine 'footplate' driving experience and this was his instructor. Monochrome and a little extra grain to achieve a vintage feel.
We turn the clock back to 1992 and pay a visit to Ontonagon, MI. Baldwin 101 has had a long tenure with the railroad but has since joined the ranks of retired Baldwins from around the country rusting away outside the shop in Wells. Back on this mid-summer day 26 years ago 101 was tied up with E&LS 402 in the Ontonagon Yard. I'm not sure if this switcher was on it's way to or from duty as the paper mill yard switcher or pressed into mainline service. These were better days for Ontonagon too as the last ten years have seen the paper mill close, be demolished and the E&LS would hastily remove the tracks serving town.
There is hope that better days may return with an energy plant planned for Ontonagon that would necessitate replacing the railroad. However it would take a double miracle and then some for 101 to ever visit Ontonagon again. July 15, 1992.
Conrail SD45-2 6655 rests at the Oak Island Engine Terminal at dusk. This unit is no stranger to Oak Island, and it can still be seen in this vicinity 26 years later, "disguised" as NS 1701, of course.

“The restlessness and the longing, like the longing that is in the whistle of a faraway train. Except that the longing isn't really in the whistle—it is in you.”
