A few days ago I went to the East Broad Top railroad in
Rockhill, PA. It is a, now, out of
service railroad. It is what is called a
narrow scale railroad. You can check up
on the history of everything but basically railway width is based off of what
the width of the horse's rear, and the wheels of a chariot would be.
The EBT is pretty much decommissioned. There is likely no resurgence in its
future. It's a sad thing too. I went on an outing with several other
photographers to check it out. While
there were many more photographs to take, than what I took, I couldn't really
bring myself to shoot everything. I know
that this sounds ridiculous with digital photography being much cheaper than
film and all, BUT! the reason I didn't is because I figured that everyone was
shooting the whole scene. I didn't
really want to shoot the same photographs as fifteen other photographers.
I chose to shot the day with less than twenty
photographs. Here are a few that I
enjoyed out of that twenty.
