Welcome to Steam in the Blood.

Welcome to our website devoted to the photography of steam trains, both on the main line and at preserved heritage sites. 

Steam in the Blood is an independent website.  We are not affiliated to any single Heritage railway and we don't rely on adverts - we simply try to bring you the best photographs of steam in the South West. 
We're possibly the only independent site to bring you a gallery devoted to
volunteers - those wonderful people who keep our Heritage railways moving.  Enthusiasts aren't forgotten either with 'The Mess Room' a page devoted to all the latest news and events from railway sites and locomotive owners around the country.  If you have any news you think we ought to display go to the Mess Room and read about how to contact us.  

So, if you're taking a coffee break at work or just browsing from the comfort of your own home, take a few minutes to explore my galleries and discover why so many of us have Steam in the Blood.
