Trainspotting

The Waitara Railway Preservation Society collects, fixes and runs old trains on an unused train line in Taranaki, New Zealand. We were invited out to sketch some of the cool old stuff like parts, engines and cars in various states of restoration. (Train above is a NZR TR from 1957.)

Headstones in the cemetery



These two sketches were done some time ago - one original and one digitally coloured. (I think it looks more like a graveyard in black and white.)
While I was there I noticed a headstone for the Viking Lander out of the corner of my eye. (The 1970's Mars Mission?) Surely, not! At the very least, wasn't it on another planet? (I explain it better on my other blog.)
