The picture is a quality print, unlike that of a magazine, and is half-page size. I would have bet my last dollar it was in one of my Morning Sun books. The picture itself is of a railfan trip sometime in the early 60's. The picture is in color. The train is a mix of passenger cars and open gondolas on the rear for people to ride open air in. The shot is taken from the end gondola looking forward towards the rest of the train. There are two prominent guys right at the front of the picture .... an older man in a trench coat and hat, the other is a younger fellow in a varsity type jacket and red hair. The train is Binghamton bound and the shot is taken approaching the Howes Cave cement plant. The train is curving to the left with the cement plant on the right. I've searched through all my books twice and still can't put my fingers on it !!! Can anyone here please help me re-locate this picture ??? Thanks for ANY help, Mark.
Searching... Will look through my collection and see if I can find it for you. http://www.trainweb.org/dhvm/publications.htm
Found It !!! Sorry if I led anyone on a wild goose chase - it WAS in a magazine. I searched all day today and finally found it in the October 1999 issue of Railmodel Journal ( reprinted below ). This one drove me nuts trying to find .... at least I'll be able to sleep tonight !!! ( Sorry for the crappy pic - I just took a photo out of the magazine ) Mark.
Always will to help search. My searchs today made me think you might have been thinking about the Delaware & Uslter but I'm glad you did find the one you were looking for. :thumbs_up: :thumbs_up: :thumbs_up: :thumbs_up:
We are all in the same train.... I do that kind of stuff to myself all of the time....and then, later, after I gave up looking, I find it....too late to help with the project I was working on at the time.
