Mortal Engines ou Mécaniques fatales au Québec, est un film de science-fiction américano-néo-zélandais réalisé par Christian Rivers, coécrit et produit par Peter Jackson, sorti en 2018. Il est adapté du roman du même nom de Philip Reeve, premier tome de sa série littéraire Tom et Hester.
Synopsis
Dans un monde post-apocalyptique ravagé après un holocauste nucléaire, de gigantesques villes mobiles errent et tentent de prendre le pouvoir sur d'autres villes mobiles plus petites ou moins armées. Le récit suit ainsi le trajet de la ville de Londres, hégémonique et sans pitié.
Le hasard va faire rencontrer Tom Natsworthy et Hester Shaw ; les deux héros vont modifier la destinée de Londre
Mortal Engines is a 2018 post-apocalyptic adventure film directed by Christian Rivers and with a screenplay by Fran Walsh, Philippa Boyens, and Peter Jackson, based on the novel of the same name by Philip Reeve, and starring Hera Hilmar, Robert Sheehan, Hugo Weaving, Jihae, Ronan Raftery, Leila George, Patrick Malahide, and Stephen Lang. An American–New Zealand co-production, the film is set in a post-apocalyptic world where entire cities have been mounted on wheels and motorised, and prey on one another.
Jackson purchased the rights to the book in 2009, but the film languished for several years before being officially announced in 2016. Jackson picked Rivers, who won an Academy Award for Best Visual Effects for his work on Jackson's King Kong, to make his directorial debut with the project, and also brought on several members of his production teams from the Lord of the Rings and Hobbit film series. Filming took place from April to July 2017 in New Zealand.

Steam engine used in China about 1908.
Between 1905 and 1909 my grandfather Gabriel Clark worked as a foreman for the Imperial Chinese Railroad in Henan Province of China. This set of his photos shows the railway that he worked on and has scenes of stations, engines, railway structures, and railway construction.
Just some facts:
This engine drives one of the steepest trains in the world,it has declared as a world heritage by the UN guys. The train shuttles bw Metupallayam to Ooty.
It seems that diesel engine doesn;t have enough power to drive the steep train so a old steam engine is still being used.
Outside the Victoria Station Restaurant on Jalan Ampang.
I guess this is a former Malayan Railways locomotive - probably built in the UK. Can anyone confirm?
Another shot of the engine trouble.
On departure from Chino Airport after the 2011 Planes of Fame Airshow the C-53 Skytrooper "D-Day Doll" experienced engine trouble. They had to shut off one engine and return to Chino Airport.
