EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases Locomotive No. 21, a 0-6-6-0 type steam locomotive, as it gracefully traverses a picturesque railway line. The Eastern Railway system, renowned for its significant role in India's transportation history, is the backdrop for this scene. The locomotive, with its powerful and imposing presence, epitomizes the golden era of rail travel. The 0-6-6-0 wheel arrangement, also known as the Mikado arrangement, is named after the Mikado steam locomotive built for the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway in the United States. This particular configuration allows for a greater adhesive weight, enhancing the locomotive's traction and pulling power. The intricate details of the locomotive's design are on full display, from the large, gleaming chimney to the intricately patterned boiler and the meticulously crafted wheels. The steam billowing from the chimney, combined with the trails of smoke behind the locomotive, add to the romantic allure of this bygone era. The locomotive's engine, a marvel of engineering, is the heart of the machine. The steam engine's pistons rhythmically pumping, driving the wheels and propelling the train forward, is a testament to the ingenuity and determination of the engineers and innovators of the past. This photograph is not only a snapshot of history but also a reminder of the romance and adventure that rail travel once held. The Locomotive No. 21, with its powerful presence and intricate design, stands as a symbol of the rich railway heritage that continues to captivate and inspire us.
