Class KF7 No 607 steam locomotive

The Chinese Government Railways Class KF7 No 607 steam locomotive built by the Vulcan Foundry in Britain, exported to China, and returned to the UK as a gift by the Chinese, and which now stands in the Great Hall of the National Railway Museum in York, England. It has the same rail gauge as the UK system, but is much higher, wider and longer then British locomotives, as China has a larger loading gauge.

Another common photo location for us two Gordon. I did see this but did not get a shot as nice. Great to see the close-up of the wheels and con-rods too. Well done.

Cheers. Herb

A very impressive and powerful looking loco TOZ. I really like the black and red livery and the detail you've captured.

Nice to see the PiP, with a person in front of the wheels for scale! They're massive!
