In the course of a ten-day Amtrak trip, I spent twenty-four hours at Cumberland, Maryland, where I made a variety of photos of Chessie System’s Baltimore & Ohio.
I found many railroaders on the B&O to be cordial and helpful. A man in this trackside office near the west-end of the sprawling Cumberland Yard invited me to make a photograph from his window.
I exposed the image on Kodak black & white film using my dad’s Rolleiflex Model T that I’d borrowed for the duration of the trip. I also made a few color slides that day. I’ve always liked the framing of the B&O locomotive.

Always enjoy seeing and evaluating your excellent photography.
Do you have a photo looking south from the south end of either of the 125th and Park MN once NYCentral Station platforms? I would dearly love to put an enlargement on a wall of my Jerusalem apartment. The year and equipment are not critical, but the older the better. It can be sent as an pdf, jpg, bmp, tff, or word attachment. And if you can add an electronic signature in a bottom corner, I will preserve it. Thanks in advance
