A nice series, Aram. I particularly liked the reflections of the engine as it
came alongside your coach.
However, the source of the KVSR engine's "drink" seems not as elegant as their
old water tower that I showed, a couple of weeks ago.

Lake last weekend. On the way home we stopped in Summerland and rode
the Kettle Valley steam train. Nice little ride with great scenery.
Breaking in my photo legs again.
Here is the train in the station before we left:

The engine was hooked up backwards on the way down the grade, so our car
looked directly at the front of the engine,

Inside our luxury coach, before we took off. I did fill up about half
way by the time we departed.

At the end of the run, the engine disconnected, and moved to the other
side of the train for the trek back up hill. Here it is coming
alongside our coach.

It got thirsty on the way back, so needed a drink

It was a fun trip to break up the ride home.
Comments welcome.
