"For Some Strange Reason" Guys seems to gather around complex, old and interesting mechanical objects as if they were participating in some ancient religious rite. The fellows here in town restoring an old 1915 Baldwin had an open house today and this is a shot. In the foreground examining the opening to the firebox, in the distance deep and studied conversation on the wheels and driving them. Perfect. Oil fired.

This old darling is awaiting restoration by the same folks who are working on the locomotive. They'd better hurry before this one rusts away.

Added later: While it does not seem in focus it is. Check the grasses under the car. It is just rusty as anything which makes it look out of focus.
