  1. I really like this image, Roy. I particularly enjoy studying the slightly blurred crowd gathered around the locomotive. The joyous smile on the young lady on the engine… the gentleman in the buttoned dapper suit… the man wearing the military-style hat… the guy bent over with his black Instamatic Kodak camera. Funny thing is I remember the somber looking guy wearing the black baseball cap from the 6060 trips fifteen years later. I don’t recall ever talking to him, but he was always there – never saw him smile. Funny how an image like this can fire little memory joggers. Thank you for sharing, Sir!

  2. Hi Peter. Glad you enjoyed the photo that was taken by my father (Roy). Your descriptive commentary on the crowd was a delight to read. Thank you!
