I went out yesterday morning bright and early and waited for something I have always wanted to photograph. She's not the biggest or the smallest of her kind and I missed a chance at her last summer and low and behold I got two chances yesterday. So Lucky, without further adoo, here are a few shots for you sir. I just wish I could have recorded the sound for you all.
Lovely pictures Aaron, looks like it was a great day for taking them as well. Also like the diesel backup behind. Is it 1 or 2 diesels and it looks like 13 or 14 coaches being pulled.
Wow, great shots Aaron, I love those old trains. I just found my old Lionel train set my dad bought around 1948, hidden in his garage. We use to put it up every Christmas, I was really surprised to find it in A1 condition, just missing the power box.
Yes please Merv. If I wasn't building planes, I'd be chugging trains. Still have some of my old Hornby OO triple track stuff sculling around somewhere.
Great shots, Aaron...I love the old coal (and wood) burners!
When I was a kid, had a vintage S-gauge A.C. Gilbert American Flyer set when I was a kid, my Uncle Kieth had collected them for ages and used to give me the duplicates and such. If I remember right, S-gauge was roughly 1/48 scale.
