Nostalgia & History > Open cab door--skip the shot?Date: 05/14/19 23:06 Open cab door--skip the shot? Author: jgilmore Like a lot of fans, I generally don't like taking shots with an open door on the lead unit, and back in the day I would often give such a train a pass and wait for the next one. Why I don't know because it shouldn't matter at all, but I did take a few pics with open cab doors back in the day and feel they don't look so bad through the lens of time. What's your view? JG
1) Westbound CR RR-281 is passing through Sheridan, PA, on the Harrisburg Line. 2) Stack train TV-204 is EB at Blandon, PA, on the Reading Line. 3) Manifest ALPI is meeting a coal load at Altoona.    Date: 05/15/19 00:09 Re: Open cab door--skip the shot? Author: EL3600 Thank you for taking them.

I'm sure you're happy you took the Conrail shots too... Date: 05/15/19 09:30 Re: Open cab door--skip the shot? Author: trainjunkie Railroad air conditioning.
