Photos taken last month, it boggles the mind that these scenes from 100+ years ago still exist.

Enjoy,

Thanks for taking and posting these! I've always found something fascinating about old steam locos. I could wander around looking at that stuff for ages. There's a certain aesthetic to the mechanicals that you just don't see any more. And the complex shapes and bold textures really lend themselves to B&W.

Which reminds me, there's a railway museum a couple of hours from here... I ought to go check it out myself!

Regards,
Scott

I did, thanks for posting. I'm no train-nut but I really liked what you captured there. I'd love to visit the place, smell the old machines, get a feel of the history in the air.
