Gordonwis Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Alasehir in Turkey on Google street view... some of the locos in this line may have hauled or been photographed by me in the 1980s. https://goo.gl/maps/2a4iAHvCe1vwKy3k7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That looks in pretty good condition, certainly better than much of what came out of Woodham's. Probably difficult to get Allely's (other heavy hauliers are available) to go to Baghdad. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidB-AU Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 There are abandoned steam locos in various places along the Hejaz railway. Some look pretty much the same as the day they were wrecked by T.E. Lawrence over a century ago. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
