more scared of how complicated shit

Who want's, can download the game from some abandonware-sites like abandonia.com or freewarearchiv.de, for example.
I will think over... ;)

I like steam- and dieselpunk and it reminds me a bit of the so called fin de siècle of the late years of the 19th century and its art, especially at the literature of Jules Verne and the printings and drawings of the "futureologists" of the ending 19th century.
In my collection I have the PC-game Syberia (I and II) of Benoit Sokal... it's a paradise of steam- and dieselpunk motives.

Ken...

You know the New York Central System and the Pennsylvania Railroad did that for real, every day of the week except Sunday, for many years?

Chicago to Englewood, IL, with the Twentieth Century and Broadway Limiteds.


Broadway Limited hauled by a PRR K4 4-6-2 on the camera's left, Twentieth* Century pulled by an NYC J1 4-6-4 on the right.
*Note that it wouldn't truly take on it's later "20th Century Limited" branding until the 1938 revamp by Henry Dreyfuss.

Quite aware of it.  My maternal grandfather took a shot of them heading east out of Chicago and made a nice sum selling it to the railroad whose train was leading.  All of his railway photos and movies are now in the National Railroad Museum, look for the name Lyman Barber Herrin.

NYC was The Old Family Business for my maternal grandmother's family... well, let's just say that when her grandfather had only one son follow him onto LS&MS/NYC, one on then-NYC-affiliated Nickel Plate and two defecting to archrival Pennsy, that must have made some REAL interesting holiday-dinnertable discussions... O.O
