A little piece of history

by Ian Blair January 30, 2020 No Comments

Occasionally you come across some interesting images and these two were in a batch of American railway transparencies I purchased years ago.

The images show a slice of 1950s life and there are some great examples of period cars in the images but unfortunately because they were just extras in a batch of images I don’t actually have any information with regards to the exact date or location.

They were original period Kodachrome transparencies and considering their age they were in excellent condition. I have included them here as I find them interesting and who knows someone else might to.
