Sad as it may be, I love seeing your take on Steam's End John. Even in '59 you had a good camera, good film, great light and a great angle. Well done!

John - thanks for sharing this sad image of the demise of steam. It's unfortunate that so many steam locomotives had to be scrapped, especially ones like the cab forward class. The disassembled tender looks like flat car and the steam locomotive is shifting it in the yard (it's nice to dream).

Yes it is very sad, but you did get a great piece of history that can be seen for generations to come.
