We were especially lucky to see two trains pulling into the station at the same time that day.

le nb de fois où les trains sont bondés.
Malheureusement, le passage de locomotive + voitures à rame indéformable automotrice semble avoir compliqué la flexibilité : 1 rame simple ou double mais pas de voiture supplémentaire.
Je suppose également que le parc est trop restreint pour avoir du rab.

After spending one year in the scrapyard, Rosie was purchased by the Sodor China Clay Co. and repaired. She mostly shunted Brendam Harbour, and took supplies to the quarry. She got on well with the engines, including James, who came down the branchline a couple of times. (4/8) #STMY #TTTE

In 1967, Rosie was withdrawn from BR service. She was bought by a small harbour in Southern England and acted as the pilot there until 1973. That year, the harbour bought a withdrawn BR Class 08 diesel to replace her. So she was sent to a scrapyard. (3/8) #STMY #TTTE

After the war, Rosie was bought by the Southern Railway in England and rebuilt with an extended bunker. In 1948, she was absorbed into British Rail. In 1956 she was repainted with the BR ‘ferret and dartboard’ logo. In 1960, she was repainted green with the same logo. (2/8) #STMY #TTTE

I used to do some railroad work. This image is probably my favorite it says a little something about the business and the doggedness of the "schedule" and being on time safely. It was mixed snow and rain on this night in Sultan Washington blowing about 35... I titled it "And Still They Come"
The image titled "And Still They Come" shows a oncoming freight train locomotive illuminating the night as it rushes headlong into a blinding driving wind driven snow and rain storm... lights on bright and the horn blowing as it passes through Sultan Washington in the Cascade Foothills starting up Stevens Pass.
