Photos of interest


Greg Martin
 

I thought I might share this with you all. It is a great little gallery of photos spanning our era and beyond. Great site.

http://www.westernrailimages.com/

One particular gallery of interest i the MP Gallery and especially page 11 and 12. This crew had a very special day.

There is also some good shots looking down onto some well weathered double board roofs, while the sides of the cars are rather clean.

Ejoy,

Greg Martin

This posting was finally brought to my attention and penetrated my
consciousness, and I took a look at this website. Thanks, Greg, for
sharing this site. I am surprised to see that apparently only Tim
O'Connor has responded about it so far. The 500+ UP photos are
certainly of interest to this UP fan - great stuff. Good to know
that Jim Ozment's photos are once again available.

Thanks again,
Dick Harley

$5 for a color 8x10 print is a lot cheaper than Bob's!

Good thing Bob's collection is not online, or a lot of
us would go broke!

Thanks

Bob's Photo is out of Wallingford, KY.  He has a fantastic collection of freight car photos . . . most from the 40 and 50s.  Remember, $7 for B&Ws and $10 for color photos is not out of the normal range these days.  You might want to call him ahead of time if you are looking for specific railroads and you are not in their territory.  He usually brings a van's worth to shows.  He and Jay Williams (Indiana) always seem to have something new it seems.  In the mid-west Rich Burg is back in it again and Bob Lorenz sometimes shows up.



Who else has freight car photos that might include those of the Kentucky and West Virginia coal hauling railroads in the 1930-50s?

Bob also brings EVERYTHING to the Cocoa Beach meet, and I believe to Naperville too. He has an email address which I believe is bobsphoto.train.@... . If you email, he will bring the appropriate volumes of photos to the show you are going to attend. I am fairly sure that the telephone number I have for him is no longer the correct one.

Actually Schuyler, he does not bring anything close to "everything" to
either of those meets. He brings an extensive selection, but it is just
a fraction of what he has.

Schuyler - Bob's collection is so big he can't bring everything to shows. He estimated to me it's about 1/3rd. If you really want to look for something specific, contact him ahead of time so he can bring it. He will also welcome visitors at convenient times to his house for serious collectors. - Al Westerfield

It would have taken most of the Springfield show just to go through all the material he brought there. But it was organized only by railroad. In my case he had both the Grand Trunk Western (not my interest) and the Grand Trunk New England Lines (my interest) mixed together. Not that I didn't find some photos to spend money on, mind you.

I see that I mistyped Bob's email address, putting a 'dot' before the @. If
you remove that dot it will work.
