* I can't thank Robert Harris enough for contributing these photographs. In the early 1960s, he and his father took a trip to Florida and caught as many railroads as they could. These shots taken in Lancaster show how things have changed in the intervening 40 years. I also wish to think Robyn Watkins of Carolina Rails for putting us together and pointing out some of the pertinent details in the shots.

I am always looking more for "classic" L&C scenes. Here's what is highest in my "wish list" presently.
