My author’s advanced copy of the July 2018 Trains has been eagerly awaited.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
July 2018 Trains will be available soon!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

In addition to my monthly column, I authored and illustrated two large feature articles.<\/p>\n

The first is a detailed nuts and bolts discussion on Positive Train Control signaling, the second a travel guide to one of my favorite places: Germany’s Rhein.<\/p>\n

I’m extremely pleased with how both stories turned out. Special thanks to my hosts at SEPTA for allowing me to better understand the intricacies of their modern signaling. And thanks to everyone at Trains Magazine for bringing these stories to print!<\/p>\n

My SEPTA PTC story starts on page 24, this is half of the opening spread that spans two pages. Exposed using my FujiFilm X-T1 with 12mm Zeiss lens.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
Travel down the Rhine beginning with my two page opener on pages 34-35. Can you guess which photo(s) in this feature were exposed on film and which are digital?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
