There's something about steam locomotives.

I remember being taken to see this beast when it first arrived in Kenya in about 1953. (I was pretty small.)

Years later I did the terrifying overnight trip from Nairobi to Mombasa. Excellent training for Kamikaze pilots.

Speaking of the great locomotives of the past let me introduce Albatros - the fastest Czechoslovak steam locomotive produced by Skoda works in Plzen IIRC. These shots were taken just before the sight-seeing journey from Prague to Brno sometimes in Y2000(2001?).
