This is the first railway photo I remember making.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My father, the late Alan Schreibeman and I were exploring Penn Central’s Shoreline route near the East Haven, Connecticut tunnel\u2014probably about 1971. I was about four years old.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I was fascinated by the ‘yellow over red’ approach aspect on the searchlight signal east of the tunnel and so using my Dad’s Leica, I made this Ektachrome slide. It was dusk and I didn’t have any understanding of exposure or shutter speed\u2014but I caught what interested me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I scanned this slide in 2018.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
