. Photographed at the recorded location in 2018, this detailed documentary image records the subject within its real surroundings and preserves a specific stage in the life of the location. The principal subject is Royal Scotsman Train & engine Belmond 66746 in Perth Railway station. The frame also records themes of community identity, adaptive reuse, documentary photography, everyday life, urban fabric, place identity, archival record, before-and-after reference, built heritage, period detail, architectural character, local character, conservation architecture, and changing land use. Viewed from the mid-2020s, the subject also connects with adaptive reuse, tourism and the value of architectural landmarks to local identity and tourism. Future viewers can use this scene from the recorded location to compare materials and architectural details with whatever follows after conservation work. The subject also sits alongside historic streetscape, heritage landmark, changing streetscape, regional identity, contemporary social history, social history, cityscape history, and public realm. The recorded references to Railway, Belmond, Perth, Scotsman, and station preserve clues about how the subject was presented, used or understood at the time. The wider setting at the recorded location matters because ordinary visual details often provide the strongest evidence of how a place actually looked and functioned. Its period value extends to adaptive reuse and the value of architectural landmarks to local identity and tourism within the specific setting of the recorded location. The location additionally provides evidence of maintenance and the value of architectural landmarks to local identity and tourism as part of the longer story of the recorded location. A further contemporary connection is tourism and how historic buildings acquire new uses as cities change when considered against later change at the recorded location.
