April 24, 2012: CSX manifest train Q583 (Nashville, TN-Atlanta, GA) passes through downtown Cartersville, GA heading South on the CSX Western & Atlantic Sub, with a standard cab C40-8 leading the run, while a leased SD40-2 from HLCX (Helm Leasing Corp) runs in the middle. This was one of my first catches after a 20 year railfanning hiatus.
Great Western engine getting ready to work at Strousburg Railroad www.strasburgrailroad.com/about-the-railroad.php
The Strasburg Rail Road is a heritage railroad located near Strasburg, Pennsylvania. It operates excursion trains hauled by steam locomotives in the heart of Pennsylvania Dutch Country. We were able to come early to observe the preparation of the locomotives

wreckage of the Boeing Superfortress B-29A that lies scattered across the peat on Bleaklow, close to the Higher Shelf stones. Hard to imagine that it was over 60 years ago that the aircraft misjudged the height in thick cloud, as the remains are so well preserved...
The quintessential classic 1950s, B.R. designed, really useful engines pose at the 2022 DRS open day at Crewe Gresty Bridge (photobombed by an 88).
There are many reasons why visitors flocked to this event at Gresty Bridge on 16 July 2022, but one of them must surely be that it may have been the last opportunity to view the DRS heritage fleet in significant numbers. The offer of a lease back scheme may mean that DRS will still have access to some of these magnificent machines and hopefully Kingmoor can produce a line up like this in 2024.

A bit of a break from the landscapes. I do like to venture into subjects I've not done before. A visit to Santa Pod gave me the chance to grab this image of an engine bay from a custom car. A bit of HDR work the at the core of the processing on this one.

The three main engines of the Space Shuttle orbiter Discovery (OV-103). National Air and Space Museum, Udvar-Hazy Center. Virginia
Developed in the 1970s by the Marshall Space Flight Center, the space shuttle main engine was the world's most sophisticated reusable rocket engine. After the solid rocket boosters were jettisoned, the main engines provided thrust which accelerated the shuttle from 3,000 mph to more than 17,000 mph in order to reach low earth orbit. The engines operated for 8 minutes and 40 seconds for each shuttle flight, with a combined output of 37 million horsepower, and a combined maximum thrust of more than 1.2 million pounds.
Visitors for the Spring Gala 53808 and 8572 meet at Bridgnorth. This could have been a scene featuring two LNER locomotives in that companies' livery, however B1 1264 was pulled from the gala the week before and the 7F was brought in as a late replacement.
This was a while back. This is somewhere between Attalla and Chattanooga. Its been a while since the steam engines ran through. I wish they still did.
A Great Western scene on Loughborough shed. Visiting from the Severn Valley Railway Small Prairie 2-6-2T 4566 is being prepped this morning. Alongside is resident Modified Hall 4-6-0 6990 Witherslack Hall.
4566 was built in Swindon in 1924 and entered service at Newton Abbot. Post-War, the locomotive worked in the far Southwest, including allocations to St. Ives and Penzance sheds. 4566 was notable for being the last steam locomotive overhauled at Newton Abbot works, completed on 15 July 1960. The engine was withdrawn from service at Plymouth Laira shed by BR in April 1962.
4566 arrived at the SVR from Barry Scrapyard on 25 August 1970 & following restoration, the locomotive first entered service in 1975. 4566’s most recent overhaul was completed in late 2006. The locomotive is therefore expected to be withdrawn from service during 2016 at the end of the boiler’s ’10-year ticket’.

East Lancs Railway "Small Engines Weekend"
EX-BR Class 31, 31271, plays to the gallery as she approches Highley with a working bound for Bridnorth.
...near Blanchland in Northumberland, was built around 1805 to house a Cornish pumping engine that prevented the local network of lead mines from flooding. Towards the end of its industrial life in the 1840s, an enormous steam engine was installed in a final attempt to keep the mines dry enough to work.
Following decommissioning, the engine house was converted to a series of flats for mining families, but was finally abandoned around a hundred years ago and has been derelict ever since.
The engine house is a reminder of a once thriving lead mining community of a little under two hundred people, but the population declined after the mid-nineteenth century, when the imports of cheaper foreign lead began. Young families then emigrated from Shildon to the goldfields of Australia and America.

Originally built by Alco in 1910 for the Maine Central Railroad, it is a steam 2-8-0 engine. This locomotive was at one time under restoration for operation on the Conway Scenic, but the plan was stopped in 2007. 501 is on display next to the turntable in North Conway and has undergone a cosmetic restoration.
Robey & Co Ltd was founded in 1854, by Robert Robey, as manufacturers of portable steam engines and thrashing machines. By 1862 they had expanded greatly and exhibited a display of agricultural equipment; "fixed engines, traction engines, ploughing tackle, corn mills, saw benches etc" at the Great Exhibition. Soon they extended the range to include a complete range of mining equipment from winding engines and pumping engines to locomotives, cages and kibbles (mine bucket).
woops, what happened here? There's a new engine :)
I revised my E2 model a bit, added some details and changed the livery to this more realistic one.
Aaand as I worked on the A1 Terrier what better excuse chance to make a shot with all my LBSCR engines :P
The terrier has 444 parts, is 100% buildable (not counting the cuved 2x2 tiles in black behind the smokebox door). Might be an easy build as I still have much Medium Nougat leftover from Gladstone :)
I did borrow some of the Terrier's design from Carl Greatrix's design. Of course I had to make use of the magnifying glasses for the porthole windows.
