[Leica] More from the train ride

[douglas.sharp at gmx.de (Douglas Sharp)]

Now that's the way to travel!!

Some great shots of what looks to be a fantastic 
railroad trip.

The US-locos are so different from those in the UK, 
most of the piping is inside on ours, makes them look 
naked in comparison.
German steam is somewhere in-between.

Thanks for posting them, Aram

Cheers
Douglas
