Brilliant photographs, brings back the days when I used to stand on the a bridge train spotting and get covered in smoke as the train went under....not a pleasant experience really.

What a beautiful locomotive. 
I imagine it would be a lot of fun to take one of those excursions. Are these trips organised by a historical society or by a commercial company? Just wondering.

Re: Clan Line @ Deepcut 15 Apr
The ones we typically have here are excursions run by museums/organisations like the one Leif spoke of. As far as regular scheduled rail service (to take you from point A to point B) you're kinda stuck with Amtrak, our government financed railroad. :-( Here's our excursion train here in Texas. http://www.texasstaterr.com/ And a video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f-xxO6ouwFoGarry Russell wrote:Don't you have them in the US Brian????
