Description
Just kidding lol.
I kept this for the last upload of the steam train. The Engine drivers were really great they invited you up into the cabin to take a photo, and Mums and dads would lift their kids up. Great stuff.
Thanks to all who have given some great comments.

I love this image. It must have been a enjoyable steam train trip. Excellent capture.
love those machines - went with one in such a cabin years ago - it was a great experience - and hot! :-) fine image in that cramped space.
Great capture Alan, very nice to see the old enamel brew can keeping the tea warm on top of the fire box, I used to have one when I first started work at the brickworks, mine was coffee though. Excellent nostaligic shot. Bravo!!!!!
Exelent capture. Well done!
I had a chance to go back into the engine compartment of an Amtrak train and stand withing 2 ' of a 16 cylinder diesel engine running.it was an experience I will not forget.the noise was unbearable but I did get a picture while I was there.they just recently restored the paint on several locomotives at the local museum and when the weather permits I will return and take pictures.will send you a link if you like.I can only imagine the heat one could feel from the open firebox.excellent capture
