This is a good "Head of Steam" and the carriages look very old, not that I am an expert, but I like the shot.

Not everything in life is Black & White, If only it were!

Thanks Rees, I wanted this shot to look 'old'. The steam was backlit by the setting sun. The loco dates from 1927 and the carriages from 1980.

A really nicely composed shot, black & white is definitely a good idea for this one
