This one came through on my flickr feed. It sure does look like she is missing some wheels but apparently not. http://www.flickr.com/photos/42309484@N03/4210379985/ |

Apparently that was taken in 1976; she's now at the railway museum in Salzburg: http://www.michaeltaylor.ca/Ind/11-slb.shtml Look at the diminutive size of the electric switcher to which she's coupled; it almost compels one to scream "No, no no! COLD water, MILD soap....." |

A German acquaintance was just explaining to me how seriously ugly American steam locomotives are.[/quote] I took a Chinese national friend camping, something he knew nothing about. Sitting around a campfire after a proper campfire meal he said "American food is good, but I always get hungry an hour later" |
