    And a heaven in a wild flower,
    Hold infinity in the palm of your hand
    And eternity in an hour.

    One more from the creepy depot. I should have left more room at the top for the ladder, but one eye was on the ground glass, one on my 5 year old. Life goes on.

    Another from my never ending fascination with railroad tracks

    the catenary system on this section of the NEC always fascinates me.

    That is one serious set of wires. Are they for the Acela or a local train?

    "Ghost Signal" - Here is an image taken on an unused branch line of the Huntingdon & Broad Top Mountain Railroad in Huntingdon, Pennsylvania. This signal still illuminates to protect the line it is attached to (The Norfolk Southern Railroad, formerly the Pennsylvania Railroad). I had to hike through some thick brush to find it. You can just make out the track to the far left of the image leading into the bushes.

    I think all the trains use them except CSX freights

    I love trains! Have not had much opportunity to photograph them in large format though, but I do have these:

    GEA-class Garratt detail

    (Ilford HP5 4x5in, Nikkor T*ED 360mm at f/8, Linhof Technika V)

    Garratts in profile

    (Ilford HP5 4x5in, Nikkor T*ED 360mm at f/8, Linhof Technika V)

    Both are South African Railways 4-8-2+2-8-4 Beyer-Garratt engines. Though they run on "narrow gauge" to you Europeans, they do dwarf most of your locomotives in size and power. They were in frequent use until 1990 even - but sadly, they are now almost nowhere to be seen.

    The Garratts are very unique. Rivaling that of the SP cab forwards and UP big boys.
