Hallo,

I downloaded this Desktop wallpaper from somewhere:

160952-train-railway-steam_locomotive-smoke-trees.jpg


And now it's bothering me, that I neither know where the picture was taken, nor which engines I see in the picuture. Can somebody help me please? :p

Thanks

Mebus

The front loco looks like the SE&CR Class C 0-6-0 preserved and used on the Bluebell Railway - uncertain about the second loco.

Hope this helps.

It's on the Bluebell Railway between Sheffield Park and Horsted Keynes, locos are ex SECR 65 (O1 class) and 592 (C) 0-6-0s, working a photo charter goods in September 2008.

To tell them apart - the O1 (leading) has a tender with outside springs, the slightly larger C a wider tender with cleaner lines.

(edited to add date, and differentiating info)
