A nighttime stroll through Tehachapi finds this little gem near the depot museum.

End Of Train. AT&SF 999827 makes a nice exclamation point as she brings up the rear of a Pete Lerro photo charter. Certainly this is a nicer way to end a train than a box with a fl... (more)

In Missouri, (one of my favorite states for rail photography,) it has been my observation, the license plate on a truck may or may not be displayed depending on the age of the truck and the temp... (more)
