I think the title on this is self-explanatory. This and Picture 2 are two of my most popular photos on Flickr. |

I don't know exactly where this was, but maybe some of you K&WV volunteers could enlighten me. Although I've been over the K&WV three times, I don't claim to know it well. |

As on Picture 1, I don't know the location of this shot, so any advice would be welcome. |

Rail Photographers |

Apparently a lot of people had line permits for the weekend, as it was a Steam Gala weekend. I never found out whether they were working for the railway, for a magazine, for themselves, or a combination of things, probably a combination. |

ex-LY 957 and TV 85 |
Description: |
This is the first of a series of black and whites that I took on the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway on my third visit there on February 18th, 2007. I started shooting black and white, if I'm not mistaken, when I got to Oxenhope, but I have to admit that in general these photos may not be in perfect order. Here we see ex-L&Y #957, built in 1887 (really!!), and Taff Vale #85, which is also ancient. The 957 is my favorite, though, being an L&Y "Ironclad" 0-6-0, as brutally authentic as a vintage British steamer can get. Neither is the oldest I've ever ridden behind, but they come close. They're also both quite small, so our train was headed by both locomotives. |

Here's a shot of 957 running around at Keighley. In reality, both 957 and 85 ran around, but seperately. |

I took this out of a train window and over 957's tender at Keighley. I just liked the shot. |

Ex-CSD 324.391 in the CD Muzeum |
Description: |
#324.391 is a little bit harder to research than the other locomotives at the museum, but the museum has a bit of information on their website. It was built in 1908 by StEG (the predecessor to the OBB) at Maschinenfabrik Wien, but ended up on the Buštehrad Railway, which was nationalised into CSD in the 1920's. Because it had worked for a smaller railway, when it ended up on CSD it was too antiquated and small to be anything but a shunter (switcher), having only 175kW (235 horsepower) and being capable of only 50Km/h. Given how little power it had, it's amazing it could even do 50Km/h with even a light load. In spite of this, it survived into the 1960's in Karlovy Vary, and survived even longer as a stationary boiler, although it is no longer operable. Like some other locomotives at the museum, it actually is the property of the Narodni Technicky Muzeum in Prague. |

Heres a second shot of 324.391. This is just the numberplate, but at least the photo is decent. |

Roundhouse at the CD Muzeum |
Description: |
The Ceske Drahy Muzeum was, until the 1990s, an active depot with a roundhouse, another engine shed, and several other buildings. These buildings are now used for display and maintenance of the collection, and the roundhouse is used for both, with some stalls for display, and some for work. Here we see the turntable, several of the display stalls, and some of the steam locomotive collection. |
