This past weekend from October 5-7, the Strasburg Rail Road in conjunction with the VMT and Fire Up 611 team ran N&W #611 and N&W #475 on weekend long photo charter. I was a participant on the first day, October 5th. The charter started bright and early at 6 am and ran till about 7 pm. We had spectacular light all day which made for some wonderful shots. I'll be sure to add to this thread as I get to the rest of the photos.
Here are a handful for you all to enjoy and I hope you like them!
Dawn with the J...
Shades of yellow, orange, purple, and blue surround #611 as she backs up to begin the photo charter...
"Sunrise with the J": N&W #611 breaks the early morning silence outside of the Verdant View Farm as the sun just barely breaks over the hills to the East. With jointed rail and the single bulb headlight re-installed I honestly could've sworn for a minute we went back to the 1950s...doesn't get much better folks!
N&W M Class #475 races by with a mixed train in the warmth of a 41 degree October morning...
