No, the police aren't coming to get you... (should they be?) but rather I thought it'd be neat to see some black and white pictures of your favorite rail scene... or any scene for that matter. Let's see 'em!
If I start, we'll have nowhere to go but up! Big Grin This is one of my favorites... A Challenger sitting next to the tail end of a Zephyr.

Thanks, Tom. Here's the crossing with just a farmer's pick-up in the picture:

And here's the same crossing, on another day, with the same truck. The train wasn't supposed to be in the same shot, though. Icon_lol

Cool shots guys. Thanks for contributing. Hey Doc, your pictures have all got a slight... haze to them. Is that characteristic of black and white pictures? Did the Brownie cameras used to do that?

When I change the photos to b&w, I usually decrease the contrast somewhat, and often add a bit of yellow to give them a little "age".
