a bit of history 3

one of the highlights at Greenfield Village is the steam train. it requires so much maintenance that it takes the whole 8 months it isn't in service to do it!
Fabulous shot!

That's a fabulous reminder of our past - Fav I was a little girl when I saw these steam trains running by the cutting near my Grandpa's house

This is a different one from the one we know - Torchwood! They must have restored another one to go around.

@vera365 I know they have a few in the rotation. I didn't look to find the name of this one. I photographed #3 last year and there is a #7 that actually serviced the Rouge Plant. So with this #1 that makes at least 3 : )

@cheekylulu @californialover @777margo @lxxx @dianen @vstap @elytra @jbucovetsky @rosiekind @dsp2 @kimdavis @yeshanghai thanks for the comments, favs and sharing your memories. I love telling the stories behind my photos and hearing yours too : ) next time I will shoot for when they expel the steam from the sides of the train as well. that is really cool but you have to watch out not to be too close as there is spray involved so I wouldn't want to get my camera wet.
