Ferro-equinology in Sheringham
I'd forgotten I had these, and am posting them now as I was reminded about them during a discussion about fandom with Dr Duffett. I need to explain to him that we can be fans of 'things' and have parasocial interaction with them just like characters in a TV show. The Isle of Man Steam Railway trains are like family pets in our family. Dad even has a photo of number 13 (Kissack) on his desk.
The photos of this green engine are from the North Norfolk Railway. Dad got quite excited as the engines had steam workings altered to work in the tunnels in London - the steam was recirculated in the piping visible to make it less steamy for people working on the trains.
When it was coming down the line I realised that it was being driven backwards!
Here it is front end on.
