Vintage Auto Day on the Candlewood Valley

The Candlewood Valley Scenic Railway ran a Photographer’s Extra today featuring a few vintage autos recently acquired by the railroad for use as photo props. Late this morning M-10 delivered them on flat cars to the Walk Landing Transload Facility where the photo-line captured them being unloaded…

Once unloading was complete, C.V.S.Ry C-19 #8 did photo run-bys with a cut of coal cars…

As the afternoon sun got low, the autos were driven down to Coal Dump Curve for additional rub-bys

Unfortunately, just as the “golden hour” light appeared my DSLR ran out of battery and my cheapie spares no longer hold a charge. I switched to the point-and-shoot but the picture quality just isn’t there so I’m not posting them.

Jon, some great shots of your layout… Nice story line also… (http://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-cool.gif)
