Not only is steam historic as in the UK long gone accept in Historic Railways and full of great childhood memories. A favourite

babysister I took my definition of historic from our home dictionary .
"Historic" .... important or likely to be important in history. Do you fit the bill!!?

I don't know what to think about this being historic. It means that I am historic also as I used to go to school in a train with a steam engine! Great photo and well taken.

Nicely done - a real old beauty. Would love to know more about the RR and engine. Love the angle, colour and detail.

Nice shot of the old engine - I'd like to know more about it. Consider a wider aperture/longer lens to blur out the houses behind.

forkcandles Apologies for the missing info. First challenge I have entered for a while, should have read the rules re the extra info requirement. This shot was taken at Minehead station at the start of the West Somerset railway line which runs for about twenty odd miles

Yes there was a lot of extraneous rubbish detracting from the main image. I should have read the rules of the challenge and included some reasons for entering this shot so apologies for the lack of explanation
