Built in 1846 to power the atmospheric trains on the South Devon Railway between Exeter St Davids and Plymouth Millbay railway stations. They contained boilers that provided the power to pumps that created the vacuum to move the trains. The Atmospheric Railway never worked effectively and was converted to conventional steam power in 1848. The Engine House became a coal merchants until 1981 with the boiler house housing a Wesleyan Chapel from 1867-1958. It became a Museum in 1982 but has since become home to the Starcross Fishing and Cruising Club.
Westbound NS train 53Q has BNSF power in the lead as it splits the classic Wabash-era US&S H-2 searchlights at Dawn, just west of Tolono, IL.
53Q was lined through the Tolono passing track to clear the main for two eastbounds running close together.
Engine House No. 18 is a fire station in the West Adams section of Los Angeles, California.
Built in 1904, the station was designed in the Mission Revival style by noted architect John Parkinson, whose later works included Los Angeles City Hall, Union Station and Bullocks Wilshire.[2] In 1915, Engine House No. 18 was one of a dozen stations closed because of budget cutbacks resulting from the "two-platoon ordinance" passed by the Los Angeles City Council in 1915.[3] The station re-opened in 1920 and remained an operating fire station until 1968.

"Unloading coal, F. Hall in foreground"
Four men and a boy unloading coal from a sailing ship into flat cars with wooden walls. The boy is stoking the firebox of a portable engine that is being used to lift the coal hopper from the ship. [See comment from Wrecksdale Wreck below for more information on this.] Very similar picture to HMR1-06-81, but with another man in the centre foreground (presumably Frank Hall).

After precision balancing and then grinding the fixed bearing to tolerances, the new crankshaft is in the block for the first time. Feels good!
picture taken out of the window of a luxair Bombardier Q400 on a flight from luxembourg to paris. the strange pattern is caused by the crappy camera that is build into the iphone (note how the orientation of the camera influences the pattern.
A fine oscillatory steam engine ,spirit fired with safety valve , whistle and regulator valve. The boiler side plates appear to come from a Bowman model but the engine with its displacement lubricator and brass flywheel do not look like any commercial model I have seen.
