Sam, this one's for you... from 1996 on the Georgetown Loop Railroad in Colorado. Gowland Pocketview 4x5, Fujichrome.

Nice! I missed this one earlier, but still pleased to see it.

Three train(ish) shots. enjoy

=================

This is located in New Hope, PA. Note that it appears to be off the tracks as well as missing a lot of stuff. Either being restored or being used for parts. Ilford 4x5 400 shot with a Graflex and Ektar 127



The next two are from a non-used part of the train station in Boonton, NJ. The subject car was apparently used for a restaurant (now long closed). Efke 25 8x10. First with a Heliar 300, second with a Verito.

I have many 35mm and digi shots of that same train! I'm awaiting the arrival of my new 5X7 and this is actually one of the first stops I intend to make with it.

Any other places to shoot trains in the area?

The only other one I knew of was in Flemington, that was years ago. There must be more around. I know that New Hope DOES have a working steamer -- it was in the shed. They probably run it near the weekend. The rest of the days, they use a Diesel.

You are right about New Hope. They only run the steamers on weekends. Here's a video I grabbed of their steam engine a few weeks ago:
