It's a pretty little engine and that looks like a proud moment being captured there.
I know a lot of people don't like Facebook, but I think it's a wonderful legacy that some of us are leaving behind by way of this sort of picture along with comments and reactions. I don't put all of my photos up, family aren't that interested really. I do have a 'Geeks only zone' album though where anyone can see this stuff. The point I'm making is that I know nothing of by Great Grandfather, not even what he looked like. Out descendants will be able to not only see what we were like but will have a real appreciation of our interests and character. I'd love to be able to see the Facebook page of my ancestors, I think it would be fascinating. There's a colossal effort gone into creating this locomotive and I'm guessing that there's little of that remaining, only the odd photo and of course Butch.
Roger,
Thanks for helping me by pointing out what the point was. I think by the way you’re talking rubbish all they will be able to see was that we were obsessed with photographing sleeping cats, wet dogs shaking the water off, what they were eating? New baby’s (Can I have fires with that). Holiday sunsets, isn’t my girlfriend hot bla bla bloody bla.
The irony that I have a face book presence is not lost on me
