Great Southern & Western Railways No. 186 steaming across the Leixlip viaduct just outside Leixlip Louisa Bridge station on it's way from Dublin Connolly to Mullingar with an RPSI Ghost Train steam special.
The water in the foreground is the Royal Canal, the large MGWR (Midland Great Western) built viaduct in Leixlip carries the railway, the canal and the towpath across the river Rye. This shot was taken from the towpath on the viaduct. The Leixlip viaduct is a strange beast. It's a fairly small bridge over the river Rye with a massive earthen embankment running over it. This means that there are trees and bushes growing all the way up the viaduct, so when you're standing at the top you'd be forgiven for not noticing that you're on an artificial viaduct rather than a very steep hill.
No. 186 seems to have been working very hard on this run, that or the coal was just very wet, but she was pouring out a hell of a lot of very dirty smoke.
No. 186 is a class J15 0-6-0 mainline locomotive preserved by the Irish Rail Preservation Society. You can read more about her on their website.

...Taken in December 2008, first time taking my Canon out into the town. I came across this image in my collection and saw how I could process it. This image has been on my Flickr account before but never took off. Taken in Tenterden, Kent, UK.

15th May 2021. The Bluebell Railway UK started running trains for the first time after the latest lockdown. The first four days were 'Ghost Trains' for crew re-training.
Carter's Steam Fair in Gosport Hampshire. A traditional style family owned Funfair. Only 3 steam driven rides on show today but great fun to walk round and view anyway. Loved it :-)
Happy New Year to you all! So while looking back at my pictures from 2014, I decided to see if any one stood out and caught my eye; the idea being that if one did, I would share it on Flickr. Yes, I have posted a couple of other not dissimilar shots to this from the New York Subway and one from the London Underground, but this is my favourite from the New York Subway. It was taken on a hot, steamy evening in late June on the platforms of the 1, 2 and 3 trains at Penn Station 34th Street.
i have taken this picture in Shibuya station. The negative shows some weird feeling from these two ladies, and the train
"Ticket to Dundeath? Certainly, though you might be cheaper to buy a creep day return to Killcaldy and then a super-scary advance from Killcaldy to Dundeath.
You'll need to book it 30 seconds ago though or it will end up costing twice as much"

Two women are sitting outside a ghost train ride at a fun fair. There's a scary painting of a monster behind them but they don't seem to be scared at all.

It was interesting watching the train rez, I spent a while just standing here watching it. You'd be right in guessing I didn't get very far from the welcome area!

The BB18¼ class locomotive is a type of 4-6-2 steam locomotive operated by the Queensland Railways. They were an improved version of the B18¼ class.
An image with and without a train superposed. Deliberately no attempt to somehow align the images. The railway line from Stoke-on-Trent to Manchester at Lyme Green, Cheshire.
Having combined them, I liked the illusion that there's a junction ahead of the train; there wasn't.
Thank you - Explore 2nd November 2008!
Taken at Arlesey station in Bedfordshire as the Kings Cross (London bound) train arrived. About a 6 second exposure using the 14-24mm on the D3.
Passing this rather nice Signal Box is 150204, working the Saturday only 2H05 1137½ Sheffield to Cleethorpes via Brigg.
The remains of the sidings can be seen to the left, rather overgrown!
