    The steam locomotive is classic that needs some TLC.

    The saying “run out of steam” comes to mind seeing this lovely heritage train.

    It is a quite strange for us a day without trains. Trains are often late, but they keep passing every day...

    Fenced off and forlorn! But great photos all the same especially the old steam engine and the rusty tracks!

    It does appear it will be awhile before they run here again!

    It doesn't look like any trains have been going anywhere for some time. That's a shame. Nice series, EG!

    Love seeing the train! That fence across the tracks says something we've all felt!

    No trains... but I like the tracks. And that wonderful old engine!

    What a bummer that no trains were running. Does the fence move off the tracks? I liked your photo with the fence and the tracks as we as the cool engine shot.

    Oh my gosh...I wouldn't expect to ride the rails in THAT. But such a great 'take' on fencing. Lovin' it.

    Love old railroad trains. This one doesn't look like it has run in a long time. We have a narrow gauge steam train running in the Black Hills of South Dakota called the 1880 train, but the engine is more like 1920. Lovely photos.

    Is this like a tour train? I love seeing old trains and engines.

    Awesome looking steam engine there! Too bad there are no trains though. I have several that pass by not far from my house every day. I love hearing them blow their horn, especially at night.

    Pictures of railroad tracks are always intriguing and even more so with a fence across them!

    Trains are another subject that interests me...and calls to me. I would love to have hoboed a train. LOL

  36. JackSeptember 3, 2015 at 9:07 PM

    Yeah. It is going to be hard for the train to get through that fence.
