While waiting for the car to be serviced close to the tracks I was able to grab a phone pic of a passing CN engine. It was raining at the time and not the greatest of images so tried to brighten it up with a sky replacement... Tony, despite the circumstances you delivered. I like the zooming-in approach so the viewer can see all its mechanical details. |

Pete, this is an oldie alright. Nice shot! (A friend of mine is restoring a 1975 Cutlass.) |

A different kind of engine - this one is a pub and hostel near Waterloo Station. Matthew Matthew, this takes top honors for subject creativity -- a pub. I love it! Great idea taking two shots (with the 1st one introducing the engine to the viewer). |

An ENGINE of destruction, as seen on this morning's trek through the forested Montreal Estate south of Sevenoaks in Kent. Perhaps I am a little unfair in judging it so severely; it is engaged on important forest management and the surroundings will quickly regenerate. Brenda Brenda, I really like how you included enough forest destruction/management in your image. It’s not just an image to look at but one that elicits an emotional response from the viewers (from those who are into saving our planet). |

Saw one in Montana a couple of years ago, it was close to 100 years old, didn't see what kind of engine, but it was probably a big single cylinder engine with "make or break" ignition, that had a very distinct sound. As a kid in the late 40's we would drive through the Kevin-Sunburst oilfield and I can still remember what those engines sounded like. Nothing like them. I'll have to dig for the photo.
Thanks for the info!
