    Great shot Gary! I love the lines from over head and the train track.

  • thanks so much Missy the steamer was getting water so couldn’t resist getting the both together to show how much rail travel has changed and what better way than over the tracks

  • thanks again Don the old steamer pulled into the station near me taking people for rides and they pulled it into the siding while waiting for one of the new country trains to come through
