Calendar Locomotives and the People Behind Them – In Depots, Roundhouses, and Engine Sheds 2026
An old engineer once said: "As you treat the locomotive, so it will treat you." A timeless truth that deserves to be remembered, even in today’s impersonal digital age. This phrase perfectly sums up—and closes—this beautiful calendar. It pays tribute not only to the old steel steeds but also to the people behind them.
