Every old engine has stories; stories of bravery and glory; stories of tragedy. The lucky ones live on in retirement to be appreciated. Others are fondly remembered by those who worked with them, but a few languish forgotten in fields and scrap yards.
They deserve to be remembered and appreciated. This page is for them.
Many more can be seen in the Relics thread at Firepics.net.
