Full Steam

Hot! In Transportation

The old railway at the bottom of my garden trundles and rumbles everyday.
With whooshing and shooshing of steam and clanking sounds that steam trains make.
The lines that look flat and straight give a little as the engine and carriages cross.
Eager little faces peer out and hands wave gleefully as it passes.
This is the Strathspey Railway.
