Rusted wheel drive unit

I thought this wheel drive unit (thanks, Martin!) was quite striking with the rust. It was located below one of the springs on the oldest locomotive as seen below:

Nikon D800 ,Nikkor AF-S 24-70mm f/2.8G ED
1/320s f/4.5 at 60.0mm iso100 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto
