In the summer of 1983, my family traveled to Vermont to photograph Steamtown operations on the Green Mountain Railroad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I made this view on Kodachrome 64 of former Canadian Pacific Railway 4-6-2 1246 on its return run from Chester to Bellows Falls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was one of several Kodachrome slides that I made that day. In addition, I also exposed some black & white film.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I was soon to begin my Senior Year at Monson Jr. Sr. High School, in Monson, Massachusetts. In October 1983, I traveled with my friend Bob Buck on Steamtown’s final run over Green Mountain’s former Rutland Railroad line. In the years after that trip, Steamtown was gradually relocated to Scranton, Pennsylvania.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
