And the muscle powered vehicle in front is just my bike...😁
This old steam locomotive was placed there as memorial to the time when the Xuhui riverside promenade and park (徐汇滨江公园) used to be a busy warehousing and cargo area.
The locomotive was made in 1987 by the Datong Locomotive Works (大同机车工厂). It is a 2-8-2 "JS" (建设, Jianshe = Construction), in the revised "B" specification, build no. 8145.
Of the "JS" in total 1,916 units were made in two production runs (not only at Datong), from 1957-1965 and again 1981 until the final end of production in 1988/9.

It was snowing a lot.
I got cold but I love going to see the trains .
I always take a hot drink with me.
Jacobite Express at Lochailort (Lady of the Braes Roman Catholic Church)
Of course I did shoot the classic viaduct shot (patience...it will be posted) but I got the idea for this shot from the Photography Online YouTubers where they shot the Jacobite Express at both the viaduct and here. If you don't hang around at the viaduct you can get here with 10-15mins to spare to grab a double helping of steam.
You can either shoot it from the roadside or, as I did here, climb up on the hill behind the road and it gives you a glimpse of Loch Ailort you don't get from road level.
Just a quick 'shout out' for the 20fps electronic shutter shooting mode the Canon R5 allows (subject to having 60%+ battery - makes it a lot easier to get a well times shot.
The building was built in 1872 and for many years was known as Lady of the Braes Roman Catholic Church and served the now deserted townships of Ardnish and Polnish. I gather it was featured in the Bill Forsyth film 'Local Hero'. For the last few years it's been a house and I admit to cloning out a Range Rover that to me upset the whole feeling of the image.

Arriving at Hull Station to take part in Filming the forties TV Drama called the "Blitz".....LMS Stanier Class 5MT 4932, is a preserved British steam locomotive.

One of my first German pictures of the year.... On the HSB network one can still find steam in daily operation on scheduled passenger trains. Here HSB 99-7245 storms out of Nordhausen with the 10:33 train to Brocken. Despite the completely backlit conditions I was quite happy with the resulting photo, the magic of steam!

This small steam engine was built for one purpose to haul lumber down from logging sites to lower elevation from the mid 1890's to the 1940's. However after WWII conservationists closed down logging operations and many thousands of acres of land were reforserted. This old tank engine is now just a decorative piece to an entrance to a ski resort.
