It was August 1987 and the last day of a ten epic adventure photographing trains in western New York, Ontario, and Pennsylvania.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My pal TSH and I had exhausted our film reserves and were getting ready for the big drive home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I made this street view looking railroad-west on Front Street in Cresson, Pennsylvania using my dad\u2019s Rolleiflex model T. I scanned this B&W negative recently using an Epson V500 and cleaned it up in Lightroom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can just feel the heat in the air. A trio of Conrail GP38s has just pulled by, probably for service on one of the secondary lines that radiated from the old Pennsylvania Railroad Main Line at Cresson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We made a quick visit to MG Tower and Horseshoe Curve on the way down the hill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
