the thing I find amazing, is the history of some of these locomotives, and the fact that they are still running today (even though they have been through restorations.)
I think it is awesome looking at them and thinking of how well built they must be to have survived so long.
Now days, stuff like automobiles are disposable, and are desinged to last maybe 20-25 years.
