Back in October, I made photos of Tatra\u2019s PCC-derived trams in the Czech Republic using Czech made Fomapan 100 Classic black & white film.<\/p>\n

I was pleased with my results, so, I bought more of this film from B&H photo (saves me a trip to Prague). Earlier this month, while wandering in Philadelphia with my brother Sean, I exposed a few photographs of SEPTA PCC\u2019s working the route 15 Trolley line on Girard Avenue in Philadelphia.<\/p>\n

Where trams in Prague run on very tight intervals, often following one another through the city streets, making for a unceasing parade of vehicles to photograph, SEPTA\u2019s Route 15 requires more patience.<\/p>\n

I processed the film using the traditional tank method. For this batch, I used Kodak D76 developer 1:1 (with water) for 5 minutes 15 seconds at 69F, preceded by a water-bath presoak with a drop of HC110. After processing I scanned the negatives with a Epson V750 Pro and made minor adjustments to files using Lightroom.<\/p>\n
