Jordan 29.9.2008: Five Jordanian young ladies pause to take photos on their mobile telephones, as 2-8-2 No. 71 (HSP 2144/1956) crosses Amman Viaduct. A small breeze pushes the loco’s smoke towards the cameras, obscuring the train’s side detail in shadow, but at the same time, creating a pleasing silhouette effect.
