I've photographed this cart more times than I care to admit. It's often down at the end of this platform and the weird crookedness of it always amuses me.

This is the coupling at the back of the steam engine in yesterday's post. There's something oddly primal about these things - grease, metal, steam, and rubber. The orthographic film renders it well.

If I remember right, steam engines need to have these little lamps left on the front so that they're visible in tunnels. I'm not sure just how helpful that little thing would be, to be honest!

A heritage railway is a railway operated as living history to re-create or preserve railway scenes of the past. Heritage railways are often old railway lines preserved in a state depicting a period (or periods) in the history of rail transport.

While some heritage railways are profitable tourist attractions, many are not-for-profit entities.

#PuffingBilly, an historic steam train still running regularly in the mountain district, was built to serve at the turn of the century. The #railway is the sole survivor of four experimental lines used to develop rural areas in the early 1900's.
