Campo & Plaster City

Here are two shots to share from about four years back...

First is of the US Gypsum narrow-gauge train in Plaster City on Feb 3, 2006. I was just shooting digital for a couple months at this point and was so happy to be able to get this after sundown shot that I never could have pulled off on slide film (especially after the four hour drive to Plaster City).

Second is the PSRM special to Garcia on Feb 4, 2006 as it pulls into Campo. I was about to spend something close to eight hours on this train (maybe more) as the round trip to Garcia resulted in only one chance to get off the train in Mexico to stretch our legs. Still, it was a great ride and I'm glad I did it. Note the Lackawanna MUs in the consist. I used to ride those back in NJ.

Thanks for looking, and corrections are welcome.
