It's late summer of 1947, and the Delaware, Lackawanna, and Western has completed its order of 24 EMD F3(A) and 12 F3(B). The end of steam on the Route of Phoebe Snow is fast approaching, and to mark the occasion, the DL&W set up a publicity photo at the Mattes Street tower with an A-B-A trio.
This image was taken as part of a night photo session at Steamtown National Historic Site in Scranton, PA in support of restoring Boston & Maine 4-6-2 3713 "The Constitution" to operation. Lighting by Steve Barry.
Taking a look at the same train and scene as captured by different photographers. The best way to view will be to sort by photo date so the photos are grouped together.
