Wonderful vehicles from the magnificent Studio Ghibli and Mr Miyazaki movie "Castle in the Sky" 1986

I'm probably the last person in the world to see this movie for the first time... especially for a adoring fan of the amazing Hayao Miyazaki movies

the Pennsylvania 8479, left to the weather and the sun before 1990, and photographed occassionally til 2007 as it rusts away
