Not sure what this portion of the steam train actually is, so if any train buffs are viewing this, and can identify the part, I'd appreciate it. It sits directly under where the engineers would be.

Great detail and composition, and range of tones in this. The sharpness is excellent--'course one would expect that from a Distagon.

Kent can probably tell us what this is.
