Thailand. 900 class 2 8 2 RONPHIBUN

Post by Steve Appleton »

Posted for the photgrapher, Dennis Mitchell:
Whilst on our way from Chumphon to Haad Yai, we stopped to wait a connection with the mixed from a branch when, low and behold, this freight from Haad Yai to Thung Song barrelled through behind a 900 series 2-8-2. I couldn't catch the number but I guess he would have been travelling at least at 80 km/h. It's not the best shot but it is one of the few I have of mainline action in Thailand; most being either yard or loco shots.

I really like the Thai stuff, and sorry I never saw the real steam day deals. They have a good selection preserved and still running on specials.
