It helps that I like old trains and that I have seen this in Chicago's Museum of Sci & Indus, but this is a spectacular version!

Burlington Northern Pioneer Zephyr, Leica D-Lux 4, 6.3 mm, ISO 100, f3.5, 0.6 sec, Ken Boyd
This sleek, stainless steel, art-deco locomotive captured the imagination of the nation when it was introduced in 1934. It clocked a speed of 112 mph between Chicago and Denver, approaching a land speed record for the time! As a long-time locomotive photographer, I visit many museums. This beautiful locomotive is preserved at the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago.
