Nice shots David!  And I'll bet a good time was had by all.

I just had a thought.  Years ago rail photo purists would have been annoyed by those signal and communication lines soiling the photo of the steam engine, but now those same signal lines are extinct.  Thank goodness there IS a photographic record of their existance.

I wouldn't be surprised if 50 years from now time people might ask "What were those wires for?"
