During the Christmas peak, Strasburg Rail Road operates half-hourly departures on its very popular run to Leaman Place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This schedule results in steam-hauled trains meeting every half hour on the siding at Groffs near Cherry Hill Road in Strasburg, PA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Soft winter sun on Saturday and pleasantly warm temperatures made for an ideal time to photograph the Groffs meet, so Kris and I set up just before lunchtime in anticipation of the show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I made this photographic sequence using my Nikon Z7-II with 24-70mm lens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
