Been looking through my Kodachrome slide collection and experimenting with scanning the slides. So here are a few oldies but goodies from the collection taken a few years ago. Plenty more in the collection, but very time consuming to scan them and the results aren't always very good.
Here we have Pickens Railroad Baldwin No. 5 "The Allan M Baum", photographed in Pickens, SC, Dec 1978
Nearby was a string of brand new Pickens XF box cars in their 200th Anniversary scheme, that NRU had just built and ready to hit the rails
I have slides of just about every short line IPD car in my collection and a model of one of these. Little side note: NRU lettered all the cars they built for several of their short lines (St. Lawrence Railroad, Indiana Eastern [Hoosier Connection], etc.) with vinyl decals. In later years, it wasn't unusual to see some of their cars with missing letters that had peeled off.
Also on this trip south, I found Laurinburg Southern GE 70ton No 76 at Laurinburg, NC
Here's Valdosta Southern SW900 No 955 in Clyattville, GA
Though not a short line, I shot this photo of Auto-Train Baldwin No. 621 (ex EL 621) in Sanford, FL, in 1973
