Sumpter Valley Railroad Photographer's Weekend
Author: HeislerPower

Few images I captured with the trusty iPhone of the annual photo trains on Eastern Oregon's narrow-gauge Sumpter Valley Railroad.

Enjoy, Taylor

Another group of images, lighting was a little difficult for the first stop.

I missed the morning as I was taking lunch to the depot and cleaning up, but hopped back aboard for the afternoon.

A favorite spot is the pond just below Sawmill Gulch Road.

Two more to finish up the post. These trains operate every October and are open to the public. Martin is usually more than willing to help keep the event running smoothly, and we're always grateful to have his assistance, though you didn't hear me say that!

Great images of a great railroad. It still blows my mind when you can take good images with a iPhone. Eastman-Kodak must be still wondering what happened.

Amazing quality. Pretty soon we will no longer feel the need to identify photos captured by our iPhone.

Thanks for sharing.
