I'm a luddite when it comes to picture taking. I still use film, slides in fact. One downside is I find it very difficult to show blog readers any of my shots.
Before I was enlightened by Debate Coach, I took many, many Kodacolor prints. In cleaning out the archives this week, I found some of the first pictures I took as an upstanding adult. Once upon a time I worked in Waltham MA. One evening after work I detoured via the Red Line yard at Fort Point Channel. To me this is still the New Haven yard, but I'm stuck in a time warp.
Anyhow, I was there just as light was disappearing. This isn't a photograph for the ages, but under the heading of "take the shot while you have it", I happened to get all three generations of Red Line cars running at the time in one shot. This picture was dated October 2000. I'm glad I got it.

Looks like old caboose trucks on the flatcar too. Old NYNH&H? I couldn't have spotted 3 generations. Cool.
Looks like the Cabot Yards in South Boston
