A little further up a Class 66 with a rake of empties, the nearest we get to some of the big freight locos in America.

Well they are no where near as great as the previous posters but here are a few I had taken a while back. I did not have a lot of time to really try and get the best shot due to the wife and kids being with me. They are now road names under the Union Pacific.

You really have to hand it to the British. They had a decidedly better-developed sense of aesthetics when it came to steam locomotives. Nice capture.
