0-6-0 steam locomotive #65, a 1930 Porter locomotive. Engine #65 was acquired from the Safe Harbor Water and Power Company of Columbia, Pennsylvania in 1972. Engine #65 is the last piece of equipment to have arrived at the WK&S by rail. Engine #65 is the locomotive you’ll most likely see in action when you visit the WK&S.

I shot this with my D200 and converted the RAW file to black and white with NIK Software’s Silver-FX Pro then blended two free textures provided by the following texture contributors (thanks folks !) to give this an old fashioned, grainy look.
Textures used:
Of corpse not (Skeletal Mess)
Golden Dreams (Telzey)
