Some of my favorite steam locomotives

I think that's enough for now. If you have a favorite type of steam locomotive, please let me see it. I might like it.

Dang, you sure have good taste in British Locomotives, they always fascinated me.

Holy fuck, several of these trains look... Godly..

I personally like the first, third, sixth, seventh, and the last one most. The blue one especially.

Now I know that this is about steam locomotives, but I gotta ask: What's your thoughts on these kind of trains? Specifically Maglev (Magnetic Levitation) ones?

Such as the Japanese SCMaglev

I love them. They're like the future of trains. Something they would belong in a Science Fiction world.

Unf, I love steam engines

Also, I feel we could make cleaner train technology now, rather than fuel or coal. Like, solar powered water boilers? Or pure electrical engines. Maybe have hydro-electric plants that feed into train tracks and allow for electric powered subway-esque trains.
(the mag-lev trains gave me the urge to talk about bringing back steam engines, in an environmentally friendly manner!)
