24-page Illustrated Feature in the NRHS Bulletin

My detailed article on Conway Scenic Railroad is a 24-page illustrated feature in the latest National Railway Historical Society Bulletin (Volume 86, No. 2). “Day to Day at Conway Scenic Railroad” is written from my perspective as the railroad’s Marketing Manager. This tells behind the scenes stories of the railroad at work that focuses on the people and the various roles they play. 

I worked with Bulletin Editor Jeff Smith on this feature story. The photo reproduction is excellent and I’m delighted with the way the article appears in print.

I photographed for this story using my various digital cameras including: Panasonic Lumix LX7, Canon EOS 7D, FujiFilm XT1, and Nikon Z6 and Z7-II.

Central Vermont Feature

Yesterday, my author’s copies of NRHS Bulletin Vol 83, No. 4 arrived with my feature story, ‘Growing Up with Central Vermont’.

This personal story of my experiences with the old CV includes a variety of my photos of the railroad exposed between 1977 and 1993.

The opening spread is a photo, previously unpublished, of train 444 crossing the Palmer diamond in September 1977, which I exposed using my father’s Leica IIIC.

An unexpected surprise was the cover story of the magazine, which is a detailed article on Metro North by my old friend (and Tracking the Light reader) Walter E. Zullig Jr!

Although a nice photo, the above view of Central Vermont’s northward road freight at Vernon, Vermont, did not make my final cut for photos submitted to the NRHS Bulletin.

Special thanks to Bulletin Staff Editor Jeff Smith for bringing my article to print.
