Strasburg Railroad : Strasburg, Pennsylvania is part of that idyllic and beautiful area also known as Pennsylvania Dutch Country.  Amongst the country roads and farming communities where life’s pace slows somewhat, the piercing whistle of a steam locomotive is heard as it winds its way through the countryside.  This is the whistle of #90, #475 or perhaps even Thomas the train.

I hope you enjoy these photographs of the trains of the Strasburg Railroad as well as some shots of the maginificent locomotives found at the Pennsylvania Railroad Museum across the street from the Strasburg Railroad.  I found myself picturing how these locomotives looked in their heyday, so for several shots, I have “antiqued” the photos into an old style of photograph.

I can picture myself standing on the station as one of these locomotives is about to depart; I’m ready to board and meet a special friend in the compartment I’ve booked for my trip across the United States….
