The View From The Train

June 24, 2008

The train guy told me that it was a rare treat to be able to ride while staring out into the windowless wide open. He was right. I could have photographed the patterns of the passing world forever.

Since this is the first gallery, a little bit of instruction. Click on a thumbnail to blow it up, then click on the photo to see the next one.

Earlier, in the engine, I asked the train guys what was the craziest thing they’d ever seen along the rails. They said there wasn’t much of the crazy stuff that could be printed. They told a couple of stories, which I promised not to repeat (I know, sorry). And then one of the guys told about someone doing something really crazy and stupid. Funny thing is, I did that same thing all through the summer of ‘88.

I smiled, but kept quiet.
