Time
for Weekend Reflections and The Weekend Roundup and the letter is Z and Zippy.
Now we do not use the word zippy much or at all in the UK however I understand
it to mean lively and energetic. These images are from 2006 when I was in
Australia and it may not be exactly what you had in mind for the word ZIPPY
but I am sure this little engine would disagree. I have
many more photographs of that day out around these old engines if you would like
me, in time to edit them? I think they are wonderful and to ride in this one from
the ZIG-ZAG Railway was brilliant. The
final image is my street – in this case
platform shot. Many different things go
through people’s head in the presence of these old engins and I wonder what my
daughter is thinking here?
Unfortunately I will not be commenting for a while due to a final
diagnosis of my shoulder problem - Parsonage Turner Syndrome which is
a rare condition and typing does not help the pain I am experiencing.
I appreciate your visit and
comments.
I hope you enjoyed this post today.
This is the cutest little red engine I have ever seen!
ReplyDeleteI have been there...
ReplyDeleteI do hope your pain is slowly easing, and you are regaining some of your mobility.
Wonderful post-- I'd like to see it in person!

Dear Margaret.

I do love seeing old steam railroad engines, and your photos of this one are great. Yes, please let us see some more.

ReplyDeleteZigZag railway love it.
That's certainly a zippy engine, at least to me.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. Get well soon.
ReplyDelete...ZIG ZAG os great for the hard letter Z! I haven't seen a steam engine in years. Thanks Margaret for joining the party, I hope that you are on the mend.
ReplyDeleteMargaret, I liked the trains. We also rode on an antique steam engined train through the woods outside Wellimgton. It was a nice tourist attraction.
ReplyDeleteStill hoping and praying for the shoulder.
