Division's 3016 4-6-0 engine. image was an oportunistic (is that a word?) one as I stopped on the way to a motorsport event I was shooting out of town back in July 2016. gear used - Canon 7d Mk2 / Tamron 150-600mm F/5-6.3 Di VC USD @150mm / 1/800sec / f8 / ISO200. initial processing in Lightroom 5.7 with detail added to the steam/smoke using a Lightroom plug-in called ON1 Effects Free 10. cheers Wayne  Mitchell's Stockman Train by Sportz Fotos, on FlickrWell there's certainly no doubt about that being a steam engine.

larryknight Hatchling More info | Sep 29, 2016 00:59 | #3418 I don't normally do train photography, but I have certainly enjoyed all the great photo the members have posted. I decided to post my one and only train shot. It's not a great photograph, but is documents a very unusual event. I happened upon this in downtown Easley, SC. The train had stopped behind me and I heard a strange pulsating sound and this is what I saw. Not at all sure what was the cause of the fire, but I guess it had something to do with a fuel injector line. It stopped immediately after they shut down the engine.

larryknight Hatchling More info | I wondered about the same thing. The train was stopped in the middle of town and the crew members were talking to the local fire department. They apparently decided that it was wise to shut the engine down, which they did. The fire ceased immediately. I came back by about an hour later and the train was gone. They must have "pushed" the lead engine on to Atlanta. Can they even do that?
