I grew up in a railroad family and I believe there no train pictures like that in our home.
Coffee is on.
My grandfather and his father working on the railways too
A crown funnel?
Presumably, that’s Queen of Rocket?
The funnel does seem rather ornamental in relation to the original. I did wonder about it
Love old trains especially those with steam engines
There is just something about them isn’t there?
Well this one is very well preserved Cherie… no wonder that they build a picket fence around it… nice shot….peter:)
It did used to be more prominently displayed.
Classic design & always a popular attraction, I wonder what happened to the original or it might be best not to know !
The original is in the Science Museum, London
