From time to time I set myself the task of taking a number of photographs, within a 24 hour period, with a common theme of one letter of the alphabet.
In the yard at Chama, NM, September 24, 2012.
The Denver and Rio Grande Western K-36 class engines are ten 3 -ft narrow gauge, Mikado type, 2-8-2 steam locomotives built for the Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad (DRGW) by Baldwin Locomotive Works. They were shipped to the Rio Grande in 1925, and were first used along the Monarch Branch and Marshall Pass, but were later sent to the Third Division out of Alamosa. Of the original ten, four are owned by the Durango and Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad (D&SNG) and five by the Cumbres and Toltec Scenic Railroad (C&TS). Number 485 fell into the turntable pit at Salida and was scrapped in Pueblo in 1955, with many parts being saved.
The locomotives are of outside-frame design, with the driving wheels placed between the two chassis frames which support the boiler, but with the cylinders, driving rods, counterweights and valve gear on the outside.
7th May 2018. The first day of the Great Heat Wave at the Keighley And Worth Valley Railway and later in the day I would have to take shelter under one of the bridges as the heat was so stifling. In the scene USATC S160 2-8-0 No.5820 Big Jim makes a light engine movement to Oxenhope [from Haworth] before she starts her duties for the day.
I was out looking for birds when this thing came rumbling out of the woods. I did not have a chance to change lenses, so this was caught with a 400mm F/5.6L from between 100 - 150m away.
While photographing the Jurassic coast in Dorset, I came across by chance this incredible steam railway. Remarkable and nostalgic it made a great subject to shoot.

The dream of many a school boy of my generation - to become an engine driver. These two look happy enough driving 76079 on the North york Moors Railway.

Royal Air Force Lockheed-Martin F-35B Lightning II ZM147 on STOL finals to RAF Marham after the first Trans-Atlantic RAF deliveries
With an unrefueled range of only 900 nautical miles and a single engine as here:

and some £GBP93m (USD$130m) each, It'll be interesting to see how they slot into operational use and how often the paying public get to see them up close and personal
However, whilst they may use stealth technology, when in STOL or VTOL mode - ear defenders are a must!

#F 73503 Model: PB 23068 Shop #4672
One of 4 purchased in 1975.
Cincinnati had a total of 13 of these fully enclosed engines which were purchased between 1972 and 1975. When this pumper was delivered, this was the second due engine where I was living. If I could only go back...
through the corner. You can see right in front of the rear wheel lower where holes are in the body work. The #2 has a hole through it. MotoAmerica is the new AMA American Super Bike series...with multiple classes.
Cincinnati OH - Engine 50
6556 Parkland Avenue
Building constructed in 1914 as a police station. Converted to a firehouse in the 1920's.
Removed today, the Commer TS3 engine from Harrington Contender JAP 698 sits basking in the daylight at the shed door. Restoration work on the coach is about to step up a notch.
1967-1971 Volkswagen 1300 Käfer as the famous Beetle from the five Disney movies between 1968-2005 about a Volkswagen Beetle called Herbie.
Herbie was its time ahead. Now several car brands are trying to realize an independent and automatic driving car, like Tesla. Herbie was able to do so already 50 years ago...
This Beetle is on permanent display in the middle of a roundabout. It took me about 2 and a half rounds to make acceptable photos... :-)

I’ve been unable to find very much information on this interesting building. It is located at 2100 N. 2nd Street, in the near north-side of St. Louis, Missouri, and currently houses American Timber Salvage. That company is in the business of salvaging historic building wood materials for re-use, and is owned by Bruce Gerrie, who collaborated with artist Bob Cassilly to provide materials for the world famous City Museum. The City Museum, which is located in a converted shoe factory in downtown St. Louis, is built almost entirely with cast offs from demolitions. Mr. Gerrie is also the owner and curator of the St. Louis Architectural Museum, which is located inside of the City Museum.
Above the door of this structure can faintly be seen the words “Engine Co. 26.” As best as I’ve been able to determine, this was a former firehouse built in 1887. The old cobblestone street can still be seen leading up to the front door, which mostly likely saw horse-drawn fire engines in its early days. I have been unable to find any information indicating how long this building remained in operation as a fire house. Apparently, in the 1990’s the building was used by some artists (JD Street, Tom Seymour and "Evil" Ted Smith) who went on to some acclaim as special effects gurus in the film industry after moving to California.

Just another grubby Pannier tank, the other one in the view across the yard. Interesting how the old BR emblem has surfaced. I saw this several times on Western Region sheds but never anywhere else. Can anybody explain it?
Techy stuff: Taken with a 35mm Fed or Zorki. Unusually, the negative has no film ID except "Kodak Safety Film" and no numbers for each frame: I normally used Ilford FP3 and FP4 and may have missed a trick all those years ago as this is not as grainy.
