"Two Standard 9F Freight locomotives, Nos. 92203 and 92240,
in appalling external condition resting between duties, towards the end
of their working lives." David Shepherd
A steam locomotive is a type of railway locomotive that produces its pulling power through a steam engine.
These locomotives are fuelled by burning combustible material; usually coal, wood, or oil, to produce steam in a boiler.
From the early 1900s, steam locomotives were gradually superseded by electric and diesel locomotives, with railways fully converting to electric and diesel power beginning in the late 1930s.
The majority of steam locomotives were retired from regular service by the 1980s, although several continue to run on tourist and heritage lines.

For those who appreciate the wildlife of Africa, India and Britain, prints and paintings by David Shepherd
The work of L.S. Lowry has become some of the most sought after in British history; his paintings and signed prints are achieving record prices in the artworld,
made even more collectable due to the rarity of the work and the relatively few signed limited edition prints that have been published.
