The smoky gears and guts of a vintage steam engine, Miltenburg, Germany
My adventurous canine companion...on his very first steam train voyage. Miltenburg Germany
One of the many hard working...and more than a wee bit sooty, work men who made our steam train voyage possible. You can tell they have a real passion for these ancient beasts.

Climbing down from the coal car, as the young man he is at heart. One of the many sooty work men who care for the iron beast and made our steam voyage possible. Miltenburg Germany
