On February 3, 2007, a date remembered by music buffs as "the day the music died", in 1959. For me, it was the last time I got a ride on a steam locomotive in regular revenue service, thus a double meaning.

Bless you, Bob, for posting the link to such a spectacular and recent shot of high deflectored QJ 7126. I don't think she's the last one surviving on the planet as the photographer claims, but she might be the last active one by now. It's certainly interesting to me to hear of another QJ operation still going in Feb 2007.
