Strasburg Railroad

DAVE VAN · Mar 23, 2005

I took these on my first outing with my "new" D2H. I have a lot to learn, but I am enjoying the ergonomics of the camera. These shots were taken at the Strasburg Railroad near Lancaster PA. This is the oldest, continuous operating railroad in the US.

Hey Dave, very interesting images. I find old steam trains to be fascinating. Nice B&W conversion.

I have a long way to go, but I think I am going to like this camera.
My wife has already said that she's jealous of the other woman :wink:

Really well seen and captured images Dave. I like them a lot.

You've also done a great job on the b&w conversion.

I really appreciate your comments. I am going to try and do a lot more B&W work. My wife talked me into it. She has an incredible eye for composition. I am trying to talk her into posting some of her photos. (Although they are from a Pentax and this is a Nikon Forum :wink: )

Thanks Mike. My son loves it there, especially on the Thomas the Tank Engine days

My dad used to take me there when I was a kid. It's neat to be able to share this with my children.
