A couple years ago, I was out in the middle of a snow storm, getting as many photographs as I could. On my way home, I spotted the Norfolk Southern 1198 train just sitting on the tracks. The engines were idling, and when they turned on the lights, I knew they were getting ready to move on.

Coos Bay No 104 Front View

Coos Bay Historical Railroad No. 104 is an old steam locomotive located in Coos Bay Oregon.
In areas where the terrain was level it was not uncommon for this iron horse to pull 100 cars loaded with logs at one time.
This beauty was retired in 1957 and has been cared for by a number different groups since. See the full image here: fineartamerica.com/featured/co

I present: the of J549!

Usually in red-lined black livery, this loco is being sandblasted as part of periodic maintenance.

She will be repainted soon and should be back at the head of trains later this year.

I keep having ideas that Bing Image Creator can't quite handle
"the footplate of a steam locomotive, where the driver is an orang-utang, and the place of the fireman is taken by several small Macaques."

4/10, mainly for an attempt at mechanism of any kind, and the fur colour.

Dennis Evanosky shares a story from 1903 when "Gentleman" Jim Corbett was awoken from his sleep at Croll's hotel by the massive locomotive explosion that happened just outside.

19 years ago today my $dayjob of the time had a staff event in the old compressor room at the old WAGR Midland Railway Workshops. Of course I wandered around the accessible portions of the complex and took some photos. At that time the now defunct "Spirit of the West" restaurant train was stabled in the workshops (at that time no longer in use by Westrail). Hauling the train was a nicely turned out WAGR K class locomotive in a variant of the original Midland Railway Company's classy maroon and cream livery.
