Monochrome Steam (1955-1975)

This sampling of black and white images is from a collection of digital scans made by chapter member Ralph Hawkins from a collection of his father's 120 negatives. John Hawkins began shooting monochrome 120 film in the late 1950's. His primary interest for the next three decades was southeastern mainline and shortline motive power. Offered here is a small sampling of steam images, mostly from southeastern roads--many of them quite obscure. Ralph has embarked on a project to make digital scans of the entire collection, likely more than a thousand in number.
