Narrow gauge steam train
Feb 21, 2017 07:32:43 #
Rode a narrow gauge steam train Sunday that was a photography trip. The train stopped 5 times, let everyone off, backed up and then made a run-by twice on each stop for people to take photo. The first half of the trip was in a driving snow storm and the second half was in sunshine. Was a chance to get very different perspectives.

Fantastic! That's almost worth a plane ride. Considering where that train goes, I can understand the narrow gauge.

Went on a Train-Photography trip in 1999 with my Brother . It was Pullman passenger cars being dragged by a Central NJ GP-7 down along the Delaware River . We stopped 6 times . I remember the night time shots especially, long exposures with tripods . Love trains .
And again , your shots are beautiful .

Excellent! Well done. Snow storm offered an exceptional scenario for your photo day. I am quite familiar with this locomotive, but never saw it with a snow plow lead.
