Delightful photo! What I can't figure out is why so many old locomotives are still running in England. I don't think there is a single one running in all of Canada--to my knowledge. You have caught the steam and background lights perfectly.

I love Black Fives and this one has been caught brilliantly by you.
Best wishes,
