On October 20, 1985 (36 years ago today) I was working with my father\u2019s Rolleiflex Model T in tandem with my Leica 3A, when I pictured Conrail\u2019s NHSE (Cedar Hill Yard, New Haven, Connecticut to Selkirk Yard, New York) ascending the old Boston & Albany grade at milepost 126.4 in Chester, Massachusetts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Displayed here are the black & white photo exposed with the Rollei with 645-size insert (note notches for ‘Super Slide’ format). I was using Kodak Verichrome Pan 120-size film that I\u2019d processed in D-76 developer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These are among the photos that I plan to show at my talk to the Massachusetts Bay Railroad Enthusiasts on Thursday evening in Malden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
