Bend that hip!
Missouri Pacific Railroad Locomotive in Hermann, Missour, 1877, originally uploaded by Missouri History Museum.
Look at the railroad men in this photo, and several of them are keeping the weight on one leg only, why? Tired? They are posing like girls! :)
I love the brackets that hold up the big light in front. I have this feeling that European steam locomotives had much smaller lights than American ones, but I might be wrong...

As for lights yes...most euro. rr's had the right of way fenced and gated and the need to see ahead was less critical so the lights were much smaller.
As for posing like girls....I'll leave that to others to decide.
My favorite guy on the photo is the one to the very left, leaning on the cow catcher.
