What is it about rust on painted metal that is so provocative and intriguing to me? What emotional nerve does it touch?

My owl is rusting up to a lovely orange on the tree. It keeps watch over all who come and go with a fearsome gaze.
The rusted remains of 34070 at Woodhams in 1982. The tender in front was a rare ex-LBSC example, which was later sold for use with a replica royal train loco, and then scrapped - although the wheels, axleboxes, and springs were saved. Several of the original tenders at Barry were sold off to various steel works, where the chassis were used for transporting heavy ingots.
'Manston' had a much happier future, with restoration completed 26 years later - including a brand new tender, and is now running on the Swanage Railway.

At days end I pull up beside this rusting barge. Those roller chocks are how I feel. I've been worn down by today, the heat, the emotion, by man's inhumanity to man.
Many and sharp the numerous ills
Inwoven with our frame;
More pointed still, we make ourselves
Regret, remorse and shame;
And man, whose heaven-erected face
The smiles of love adorn,
Man's inhumanity to man,
Makes countless thousands mourn.
Thank you, Robert Burns. I couldn't have said it better myself.
Victorian railings left to rot.
