Steam locomotive ready to pull a passenger train at the Darjeeling train station (India)
View more photos of the Darjeeling Himalayan Railway.
The Darjeeling Himalayan Railway, locally known as the "Toy Train", is a 2 ft (610 mm) narrow gauge railway that runs between New Jalpaiguri and Darjeeling (India). It is still operated by vintage British-built B Class steam locomotives. Operations between Siliguri and Kurseong have been temporarily suspended since 2010 following a Landslide at Tindharia (view photos of the landslide).
For more info about the DHR steam locomotives, read en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DHR_778_(locomotive) and www.irfca.org/docs/locolists/dhr-locos-full.html.

In the earlier years of CSX they did have some traditions. This GP30M, ex-B&O GP30 6944, was partially restored to the old B&O sunburst paint scheme and though numbered in the CSX roster, the numbers on the cab side were painted in the old B&O style.

Steam Railroading Institute in Owosso, Michigan. This engine isn't listed on the Institute's website as part of their current roster of moving stock perhaps because it doesn't run. Therefore, I cannot tell what it is or was used for in the past.
