may I ask when and where was this taken?

The Indian train was shot in 1977. I'm not sure where. Scanned it a while ago, and can't find the original slide -- I suspect that since I didn't put the location in the pbase caption, it's not on the slide mount. Sorry.

its ok. I was 1 year old back then 😛 guess locomotives were still used all around India in those years. they still have few in regular operation, and as part of Indian Railways company. but are sort of curiosity trains for tourists.

The Empress

Several years ago (2008 I think ) I was drving by the train station in Banff Alberta Canada with my Super Ikonta C.

This was sitting at the station hissing away like a huge kettle. So I took the pic.

Now, this morning I see in the news that they are making an Imax movie of this engine:
