I get lucky a lot of times. I have always taken the wife and kids places and always (well almost always) carry a camera and keep my eyes open for shots.

Thank you for the compliment, I really like the tones in the roundhouse shots

Thank you. It is good to know those engines are still operating today.

There is a railroad museum in Elkhart where I live that has a couple of steam engines, but they are not operating.

Is this a common thing in England, to still name individual locomotives? I know many of the Steamers were, such as my favorite, The Flying Scotsman. How common is this?

And, is that enough power to move that one car?

It seems to be with the DRS Direct Rail Services
