I had held off purchasing any Super Bowl LVIII collectibles or memorabilia until I found something that I thought was just “awesome”. When I saw this SI Cover, I knew I had to have it. Honestly it’s one of the best photos I’ve ever seen. Along with the captions it captures what Super Bowl LVIII was all about. Your Photog was in the right place at the right time and did a great job of capturing what Chiefs fans all across the country felt at that moment. As you can see I had the perfect place for it, it makes this wall complete and up to date.

In 1969 the locomotive was purchased in 'as is where is' condition by the Glenview Vintage Railway in Auckland and a group of enthusiasts travelled to Greymouth to bring the locomotive into working order. There followed an epic journey of more than 800 miles in total: across the Southern Alps to Christchurch and on to Picton, a strip-down for the ferry crossing over Cook Strait, then back onto the rails and up across the volcanic plateau to Auckland.
This painting shows WW480 crossing the rail bridge over the braided Waimakariri River en route to Christchurch by night - not inappropriately, because much of the freight traffic on the single line linking the two coasts through this mountainous...
