On the morning of June 10, 1982, my father and I arrived at Washington Union Station on Amtrak’s Night Owl<\/em> having traveled overnight from New Haven in the sleeper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Working with my 1930s-vintage Leica 3A 35mm rangefinder, I made this selection of black & white photos from the station platforms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And the topics of interest were the antique Washington Terminal Alco RS-1s and MARC F-units. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

My photography wasn’t sophisticated, but today they photos take me back. It was a different world then!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
