Nice job, Wharton, for any age, especially for a kid of 15. Thanks for digging it out! :) /CraigMW

Another superb image! And I appreciate your photographic bicycling efforts because I did the same thing as a kid coming up in Roanoke, VA during the mid 90's. The scenes I captured during that time period will always mean the most to me.

It doesn't get any better than this! And at 15 years of age. Wonderful.

Those Sear's "Tower" cameras were pretty decent little units considering what I recall to be their Very affordable price. I would imagine there are quite a few of us "of a certain age" that began our rail photography with one.

Wow this is a gem! I'm very glad you rode your bike all that way on that day haha. When I was a kid I took several long bike rides and walks to reach this line. but that was in the early 90's so there were no high mph passenger trains and double trackage. I like imagining what it was like though so thanks for the pic.
