I occasionally write long posts but you should assume I'm talking out of my ass until proved otherwise. I do like writing shit sometimes.

50/50 chance of suit pictures end up here or on the Art Directory account. Good luck.

Be 18+ or be gone you kids act fuckin' weird.

I wanna make sure you all know how spaghettified steam trains got when they got too hot and exploded

I love the vibe of people standing around things in old photos. Good sense of scale but also "Look! I was here!"

I wonder what kind of engine that second one is. The proportions look all weird and i cant tell if it has like, a tender behind it, or if thats a part of the actual engine. Maybe both because its also exploded lol

center-cab where iirc the firebox was on one end, boiler on the other

thats a weird setup and it makes me more interested in what weird engine that is, but it definitely means that anyone still in the cab when that one blew up is probably dead (based on the hole in the firebox)

this appears to be a similar sort of camelback, but from a different era:
