Random Travels of the Wheelman

I'm a luddite. Look it up. It means I have at least one foot firmly planted in the tried-and-true technology of the past. In photographers' terms, I still shoot slides. Any pix I'm able to post here are (1) scanned at my local WalMart or (2) taken with my point-and-shoot digital camera. With that fair warning, here are some random shots taken during my travels.

This is Columbus MS, November 2000. The Columbus & Greenville unit on display in front of the distinctive brick shops has been annointed as the "Official Baldwin of the HAPT". This unit is still on display. Columbus is worth a look-see the next time you're in north central Mississippi.

In January 2007 I found myself along the NS Harrisburg Line in Mifflin PA. There's a road bridge just east of the town's ancient PRR depot. It was a warm (50s), foggy morning, and I heard a whistle to the east. This WB passed beneath me on its way to Altoona & beyond.

This photo shows the Maine coast in its Fall 2004 splendor. This is Wiscasset, taken from the Rte 1 bridge just east of town. Note the pilings for the former WWF narrow gauge.

New Orleans, July 2007. Here's a St Charles streetcar passing by Bourbon St on the Canal St line.
