The Zig Zag Railway in Lithgow, NSW, uses a number of different steam engines to haul passengers up and down the mointainside. This C17 class engine has been with them since 1975. It was originally built in 1949 by the Clyde Engineering Company, in Sydney. I took this shot while holidaying west of the Blue Mountains recently, after taking a ride on this fine old engine. Note that I have another shot of this engine, here /

The Royal Albert Bridge that spans the Tamar river on the border between Cornwall and Devon in South-West UK. / This railway bridge was opened in 1859 and was built by probably the best engineer of the Victorian era, Isambard Kingdom Brunel, and is still in daily use now. / I took this shot on a cold November morning just before the sun fully came up. The town of Saltash in Cornwall are celebrating the 150th anniversary of this grand old bridge and of Brunel himself in May. For details of events please Click Here See my video on YouTube

A shot of the North Yorkshire Moors Railway, taken not far from Beck Hole.. it was pouring down that day and you don’t have to look too closely to see the rain. I used hdr to give an effect.. something I like to do with Steam Engine shots.. it seems to take the shot back to the steam era. Taken in the North York Moors National Park. MY STEAM AND RAIL SET

by Andy MuellerHDR image of Norfolk Southern Engine No. 5663 slowing for a railroad crossing in Montandon, PA. I just love the “Ferrari like” horse logo on the engine. HDR Images / Prague Images / Aviation Related Images

I find Knaresborough station unusual position wise, leaving the station in one direction the track goes straight into a tunnel/bridge. In the other direction it has to cross a large multi arched bridge crossing a gorge/valley. The station itself seems a bit timeless, it can’t have changed much for years. / HDR used for effect.

During the summer high season, steam trains run from York to Scarborough. I took this shot a couple of years ago, once again with a compact camera which I tend to carry with me most of the time. I think the setting is right for this shot, the old steam train passing rows of old terraced houses. MY STEAM AND RAIL SET

Believe it or not this was taken on the same day as the last shot, this time on the way back from the waterfall. During the Summer season the steam trains run regularly, lots of photo opportunities.. must remember to make an effort and actually go out and try to get steam engine photo’s this year.

Before the Steam Engine can leave the station, a staff / token has to be passed from the station master to the engine driver. This staff / token is authority to allow the train to proceed on to the single line ahead. In this case it was done while the train was in motion. This station is part of the North yorkshire Moors Railway. / / MY STEAM AND RAIL SET

Oil Painting from a photograph of Ribblehead Viaduct on the Settle – Carlisle line. Apparently the engine is a Jubilee Class steam engine and the diesel following is for train heating purposes only. (So my husband tells me, I believe him.)

I went on a Photo Safari today…as I call it when I specifically go out with my camera to see what I can see and create. / I took some wonderful pictures and was very happy with myself. / Then on the way home on a rural road, I was stopped by flashing red lights at a railway crossing. / Looking down the tracks as I waited there, I saw what was coming. / I thought to myself, “wouldn’t that make a wonderful picture!” / Then, remembered my camera was at my side, resting on the seat beside me, I grabbed it, rolled down my window and took a few shots. / Oh, was I excited!!!! / This is one of those shots where you see the sight and wish you had your camera…AND I DID! / I giggled all the way home! / Snow Plow makes top 5 in the challenge Red and White in the Canada…The Great White North group / Snow Plow also makes it on to the Home Page! What a treat. Thank you RedBubble.

I took this photo a few years ago on my little Canon A60 Powershot only 2. mega pixels, But thought it was not a bad shot & decided to post it. I think the pic looks better viewed in large mode.:-) London Midland and Scottish Railway (LMS) Princess Coronation Class 6233 Duchess of Sutherland is a preserved steam locomotive. 6233 was outshopped in July 1938 from Crewe Works and was part of the third batch of her class. These were unstreamlined, painted in LMS standard crimson lake livery and had a single chimney and no smoke deflectors and an estimated cost of £13,800 each. Service. 6233 was initially allocated to Camden, London. She acquired a double chimney in March 1941 and because of drifting smoke acquired smoke deflectors in September 1945 before being painted in postwar LMS black livery in September 1946. With the creation of British Railways on 1st January 1948 she was allocated to Crewe North depot. She was given her BR number 46233 in October 1948 and repainted in BR Brunswick green livery in 1952 or early 1953. In June 1958 she was allocated to Carlisle Upperby before eventually being withdrawn from Edge Hill depot in February 1964. Preservation. Following her withdrawal from service she was acquired by Butlins Heads-of-Ayr holiday camp, Scotland in October 1964. Later moved to Bressingham Steam Museum she was subsequently acquired by The Princess Royal Class Locomotive Trust and restored to working order at the Midland Railway Butterley. To allow her to run on the mainline in preservation she has been fitted with Train Protection & Warning System (TPWS) and on-train monitoring recorder (OTMR) equipment, alongside the BR fitted Automatic Warning System (AWS). Royal Train. On 11 June 2002, the restored Duchess was the first steam locomotive to haul the Royal Train for 35 years, transporting Queen Elizabeth II on a tour to North Wales, from Holyhead to Llandudno Junction, as part of her Golden Jubilee. The trip also marked the 160th anniversary of the first Royal train in 1842. On 22nd March 2005 the Duchess again hauled the Royal Train, the second time for a steam locomotive in 40 years, transporting The Prince of Wales from Settle to Carlisle over the Settle-Carlisle Railway. The trip marked the 25th anniversary of the formation of the ‘Friends of the Settle and Carlisle’ pressure group. On the trip, the Prince spent a 15 minute spell behind the controls of 6233.

This rail ride takes you from Winnipeg to Grosse Isle, Manitoba for a 2 1/2 hour excursion. Steam Engine #3 is one of the oldest operating steam locomotives in North America. You can enjoy an unforgettable experience while your 1900-vintage passenger coach is pulled across the Prairie landscape and the locomotive whistles its way along the tracks! When my husband was still working for the Canadian National Railway, he worked on the overhaul of this old engine :-)) Matter of fact, he was offered a job with the Prairie Dog Central Railway yesterday as we watched the old steamer start up and return it’s journey to Winnipeg from Grosse Isle.

Featured in ImageWriting Group – May 16, 2009 / Featured in AMERICAS ~ Rural, Urban, Wild, Free – May 16, 2009 / Featured in DSLR Users Only – May 12, 2009 Deemed the oldest steam engine in North America, the old #3, originally built in Scotland in 1882, just returned to the rails on Sunday after a 7 year restoration project to bring it up to standards. I was lucky enough to be going through the small town of Grosse Isle, Manitoba on Sunday and stopped to get some shots. As I passed by the old steamer and it hissed at me, it was a sort of odd feeling to get out of the way. It was parked in this spot for awhile on the Prairie Dog Central Railway nostalgic train ride. I did wait till it took off back to Winnipeg and got the steam coming from it and the genuine coal smoke from its huge smoke stack. The bell on the top there is in ringing position as you can see, what a nice sound it was. / Dynamic Photo HDR; Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi; 17-85mm lens / /

Llangollen “Steam and Steel” festival, 2009. An old steamer climbs away from a station, up a steep incline.

Yes – twice a day – across a 46 Km route that has 30-40 degree inclines. This Locomotive is the “Ooty Toy Train” – that starts off in the plains. Soon after is an impressive 21 km section through truly rocky terrain. The track passes over 26 viaducts, and twists and bends through 13 tunnels. After a steep climb, the train enters Coonoor, the little hill station known for its tea plantations. From here, the track is uphill till you reach Fern Hill at a height of 2,218m, the highest point on the railroad. These little steam-locomotives are still running.

This cool railway went right along the endge of the White Mountains. I am sure the scenery is outstanding if you can get past looking out the window on one side and not see the ground! Yikes! Nikon D90 enhanced with HDR /
