During last month’s Steam in the Snow event at the Conway Scenic Railroad sponsored by the Massachusetts Bay Railroad Enthusiasts, I made a lot of digital photos and some video footage in my capacity as the railroad’s Manager, Marketing and Events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But that wasn’t all. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Working with my Nikon F3 and a 50mm lens, I also exposed some Fomapan 100 Classic black & white film.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I first sampled this film on a trip to the Czech Republic in October 2016. I like the tonality and classic black & white appearance of this emulsion when processed in Ilford ID11 1-1. To boost shadow detail, I let the film pre-soak in a very weak bath of HC110 and Kodak Photoflo before primary processing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here’s a sample of my images.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Coming up soon, Conway Scenic will be running more trains in the snow. The railroad plans to run seven round trips a day from February 15th to 29th using Budd RDC number 23 Millie. <\/em>The first trip departs North Conway at 730am and trains will run every 90 minutes to Attitash. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
