We lifelong train fans(aka "foamers") love any train photo...but the greatest rush you'll ever experience is chasing/pacing a full throttle steam locomotive with your camera against your face. Some have described it as "almost better than...(well you get the idea...I hope).

Hi Folks, had a chance to photograph the train and depot in the little town of Lynnville (pop. 287) today. Had a break in the weather from all the rain, so it was nice to get out, if only for a little while. The depot is a replica of what the original looked like. And the train is a retired 1927 Baldwin 2-6-2 that once ran on the St. Louis-O'Fallen railway. These are in camera HDR's taken with the Sony RX10M3. Hope folks aren't getting mad with all my recent posting.
Query: Who owns these properties? The engine looks very pristine.
Great set.

Thank you all Kindly for the encouraging and nice comments. I'm not a big commenter myself, I'd rather just show off pictures and let them speak for themselves. So I apologize for not replying to each and every comment. I am going to answer to those who have asked questions or to someone who's comment I like to answer. Again, as they say in the south..."much obliged" for each and everyone of visited and left a comment. One thing I do, is read them all.

It's probably owned by the city of Lynnville or maybe the county is my best guess. The engine may look pristine, but that's because it has a good fresh coat of black paint. Up close, there are areas where rust has ate through some of the metal. There are some missing parts and a few hand made parts that are not original to the engine but added for looks. But she sure is perty to look at. Thanks for commenting and stopping by.
