Steam locos were somewhat limited in Istanbul in 1975, only working in and back out again. One such train was the 16.35 to Apapzarri, which departed from Haydarpasa Station on the Asian side. Here one of the Henschel or Krupp built 460xx class 4-8-0s is waiting to attach to its train. Note the two Electric locos somewhat hidden behind it.
