| The second generation of enthusiasts who witnessed the end of steam was too young to experience some of the biggest, best, oldest and oddest. Some have dim memories of these locomotives in steam, but for most of us a rusting hulk on the scrap road was our only tangible link, and it was the photo’s and reminisces of the pre War generation that fired our imaginations. Some pictures from my scrap book by pre-war photographers are presented in the collection “Trans Australia before 1950” which can be found in my separate Gallery “Railway Scrapbook - Steam Before 1950” – just click the link under “Other Galleries” on the front page of this gallery. The gallery also includes a collection of stunning Canadian Pacific Steam in the Rockies. |
