Rod, this is the same steam train I had to go and shoot leaving from the Wauchope Railway Station last weekend You've done well, the shots look great.

can't quite remember how the classification of trains is/was.....in the case it would be a 2-6-2
the first 2 is for the 2 "steering" wheels up front
the 6 would be for the next 6 "drive" wheels, followed by 2 more drive wheels. the classification system was named
for someone, but the fog is too thick in head to retrieve it
great shots
cheers

That's a heck of a lot of coal for the fireman to have to shovel into the engine. I'm glad it's him not me.

I can hear it - the hissing of the steam - the power of it. Nice series.
